Fork bent?

Maybe just an illusion

Did you know that before or just tell by the geo?

When you've seen a few, it's easy to spot the signs. Excessive BB drop, steep angles and on a lot of curved top tube lo-pros the tube is supposed to be horizontal at the head lug. To be honest, it was the nose-down saddle which made me take a long look at it, and then everything fell into place.

Ahh. To be honest I still can't spot most of those.

Actually, fork is original, frame was made to take 650c front. Owner just wants to put another fork, 700c, also Rychtarski with similar paint scheme, but this one is original.

Are you sure I thought the one on the right was the original fork. Paint also matches.


EDIT: sorry, just realised you are right.

First of all, it's an original Nitto Aerodynamics, so there was no need to cut it. Secondly, this frame was probably designed to take 650c and 700c wheel in the front, but originally it came with the 650c fork. BB is at 26.5cm in this config.

What, so that it wouldn't work properly in either configuration?

People might not want to cut those bars, but that's not the same as saying they don't need cutting.

^^^Rauling outta control

Explain please how does it not work in either configuration.
Nitto Aerodynamics bullhorns are different from LA84 which are much longer. I don't think they need any further shortening, so I didn't cut them. They work just fine.

The last straight extension is a clamping area in case you use brake levers, but as you are running a "track" configuration is just common to chop them off, as you won't use that part anyway.

PS: brand new LA84 come at the same lenght

its the magic concrete wall again…...
