660 is the sweetspot. 800 is too wide for anything short of DH MTB
-
• #88
610 is perfect for filtering imo

I took out a few wing mirrors at first running 665 but you get used to it.
800 would be a bit much but would like to try it

Not sure I'd ever go past the 711s I've got on my Corsair, super wide.

Lol. I love where this thread has gone.
I swapped out the TB14's for my OG Ellipses on the Duratec, oh and a different saddle as well, San Marco Dream.
Saddle is perfect but I'm not sold on the deep(ish) sections look, saying that, the Mavics have drastically amped the ride, I really forgot how underrated that wheelset is on the road.
I've got a gloss black USE Alien seatpost on the way (10mm layback) and that's about it for now. Decent pics to come soon! Probably!*
*I would take a pic now but my phone went poo diving last weekend and the phone I'm on now doesn't work properly because I ran it over with the Bianchi last year and smashed the camera. /csb

Great to see this in the flesh last night ... proper slayve!

Cheers everyone! Thanks to @timbre for snapping a great shot!
So yea, it's pretty much finished. Fitted the USE seatpost on Wednesday, also stuck with the Ellipses in the end as you can see.
The only thing I wasn't really planning on doing is an emergency crank swap on Thursday. The campag pistas we're fixing to rub on my chainstay so I had to swap them out for the omnoms in hope they would clear the frame and I got very lucky, there's just enough room there.
I love this bike, I'll be hanging onto this one.

Looks gert lush mate. Sick one bruv. Word.
^ Doing it right.
I imagine that's the kind of thing that would keep wing mirrors up at night.
