  • For those who think 7800 cranks are ugly, how about the monstrosity that is 4600!

    In January my son will be 9 months, and thus: old enough to go in a baby seat on the back of the bike. Hence this pile of practicality that I put together yesterday (chain is too short, I know. Gonna root out some links and add them in when he goes back to sleep.)

    It's not a Raleigh. I think it's some generic 631 frame. Welds look very similar to my crosscheck, so something in that vein that has been resprayed and had decals added (inexplicably). It was free, whatever it is...

  • I was just going to say that 7800 cranks look like 4600. Definitely do not want. Spoils the entire groupset for me...

  • Yeah, pictures make them look horrible but in real life I think they're sufficiently blingy that the shape isn't too noticeable. Since Shimano started down the hollowtech II route, it's all gone to shit, looks wise. Ultegra 6700 cranks are passable but I think that's down to the darker ano.
