Slammed stems on a well fitted lopro can be brutal..
1 inch+ from slammed makes a world of difference on ride trust me.

@Uoeno Try some bullhorns on this plZ?

true true, but obviously I meant slammed just for posing and the instagram pictures haha

whats your right pedal sayin?

Bahhh don't watch that man, just stuck some dead pedals on so i could ride home from the station init

Haha! Trust me, that poserlyf, dw I'll be getting some risers soon so the stem will be lowered down a bit. Cheers, changing the ratio from 47/15 to probs 47/18 soon.

Putting together this wee balance bike for my wee Godson. Always meant to build a frame so this is an easy way in. Don't think I have the patience for a big boys bike though.

Class. No forks though?

Quick questine - I have SRAM S500 brake levers - I need the road version of BB7 callipers, don't I?

Yes

Rats. They cost more than the mtn levers :/

46 x 11-36

Ill at the moment so can't even get out on it but not sure how stable that chain will be on the front. Is it worth trying to bodge a chain keeper?

If you ride off-road you'll need something.

If I flatten and shorten an old front mech it'll do the job, yes? Doesn't need to be anything fancy, as far as I can make out.

if u hit a pothole you'll need one (or wolftooth etc.)

This'll do for now. Wolftooth would look better but £££

Assuming an SS-specific ring the chain keeper might not be necessary.

Clutch mech?

Neither by the looks of it.

This is fine yes.
