  • This is my Pompino. Around 6 years old, raced, trained and toured on it. It's my favourite bike!

  • I got inspired by pompys pic ages ago of his Pompino with a road fork on it and wondered what it would do to the angles and handling. I have a digital pitch meter at work so I measured the angles on my medium with P2s on it and then again with a road fork to see what difference it made.

    With the P2s I measured HA 70.8 and SA 71.2. The P2s have a-c of 395mm so 5mm more than the On One Pompino forks.

    With a road fork (Kona retro road) I measured HA 72.4 and SA 72.9. A-c is 375 also measured by me so give or take a mm or two. In any case, fairly normal road geometry angles. So I built it up to give it a test:

    I was in South Wales last weekend so took it with me and bombed down some cycles paths following old railway lines and it handled really well.

    On One's website claims HA 73 and SA 73.5 presumably with their standard fork. Anyone else done any measuring?
