lol I am a midget and I ride 381mm reach

I'm after some canti cable adjusters.

There are lots of unthreaded gear cable adjusters on the market. Are they all the same diameter and able to fit the routing canti hangers? They need to be the outer diameter of a ferrule.

They are both stunning things.

Id love to see a full shot of gastons full stable

euphemism?

why those ugly grips?

Next spring expo

Because Gaston, non?

I'm still after reccomendations for an eccentric bottom bracket for a budget winter knockabout conversion or would I be better trying to magic gear/half link it?

Side shot. SO CANT WAIT!!

I was at the workshop tonight, it looks great - the joints are lovely.

Why does someone have to post something really cool and interesting immediately afterwards every time I post a really dull question?

Great news, never thought it'd be anything else.. Looks so good already and not even painted! Gathering all the bits as we speak..

Use the fix me up! calculatoran, half links&brain cells

...eccentric bottom bracket... ...[low] budget...

One or the other, surely?

The other eccentric-for-BSA68 option is the Trickstuff Exzentriker, but that's €180 unless you can find somewhere that's had them in stock...

I have the Phil Wood one for sale here: https://www.lfgss.com/conversations/256514/

PM me if interested...

^After having a proper think, I reckon I'm going to try and get away with some ropey/anti half link setup. If I can't get it to work that looks like a good option!

Stoked on finishing my 11-speed Surly Straggler build! I have some SKS Longboard mudguards and a Soma Porteur rack waiting to go on for commuting purposes and I'm also looking at getting some knobblies for some muddy fun this Winter.

I've popped more info, specs and pics up on Pedal Room if anyone is interested:

Huge thanks to @dimi3 for the help with the build and big shout out to David at http://clevermike.co.uk in Hornsey for the awesome wheel build.

Ace, looks great Dom, I'm still waiting on my wheelset so unfortunately my build has been stalled for the moment.
