Big fan of this paintjob, vigodelicious. Saddle and stem combo suggests you're a little stretched out on this frame? In any case the bullhorns are a little long, relative to the short wheelbase. Maybe give them a chop. I'm also not one for crabonz but hey ho...

Front wheel is on the wrong way round.

Thanks for the reply, I had a much larger Condor Lavoro previously and the stem and seat set up is suited to that frame. That said as you mention the bullhorns are long compared to the wheel base, they are the mash bull horn. I don't think the brake lever helps the look.

How did you tell? I've checked the wheel and it doesn't mention isn't rotational?

The blunt leading edge of an aerofoil spoked wheel should hit the wind first on the top of wheel. You've got the thinner tapered tail hitting the wind first.
Seen correctly mounted here:

Not much of an issue if you're riding to the shops in trainers :]

Altho you are correct, did the T.E.S.T.E.R. not say a reverse drop is just as good if not better?

Trainers indeed, but I'll flip it round.
Hate the stickers it came with btw

Update:
- Miche super type seat post
- San Marco aspide carbon fx saddle
- Cinelli black bar tape
- Ynot straps
- Profile Cobra S stem
Still hate the look of the brake lever and dare I say it I'm not 100% on the frame 😬

To be honest, not a fan of the mash aero bars or front wheel on that frame, looks like a cut and shut.
Have got a -17 degree mash stem, Lola bars and Mike Giant tape on my vig.

Thanks Pete
Have you got a pic, I know what you mean I'm not completely settled with it.
What about riser's and remove the brake, I'm confident on road now I don't really need it?

Get rid of the seatpost, replace with ANY other seapost. Be happy.

I have to say I like the seat post, I thought it looked pretty cool. I'm settled with the rear just the front end?!
-
• #18
Does it need a different rear wheel?

Annoyingly I didn't take any with the final setup with the Mash stem installed and its now in a box for winter.
Having been through loads of combinations; bullhorns with a TT lever are my fav. but I've not done riser bars nor brakeless, do too many miles and too many emergency stops for that s**t.

I like Mash bars. I wish I hadnt sold mine.
-
• #21
I think they look smart too!
-
• #22
seatpost tend to crack.
-
• #23
Really! Until then I think it's cool

Rides fixed, waits until seatpost cracks. Something is wrong, but I can't quite my finger on what it is.
Opinions welcomed...
That aside I'm happy with how it's going.
