oh yeah, strange wheel

?

humor as his limits for me !

Wow, just weird angles guys. This shot will clear it all up (hopefully)

Built my crazy pursuit frame up with what mostly what I had lying around. Angles are so weird, crazy twitchy and wicked toe overlap. Don't think it was a 'stayer' frame, as suggested in the Aero gussets etc. thread....

Yes - the (extreme) low trail combined with a huge weight distribution of the riders body (locked/static) to the front wheel must be challenging.

hmmm.

hmmm.

but the forks would match the paint if they were the other way round.

Yeah maybe a 24" front wheel could fit under the DT with the fork flipped - would also put more sense into the very high BB at the current setup.
@boysen

Maybe a 650c rear could work?

Just swapped the bars for Criteriums, now the bike some how feels very right, nice when that happens.

Now with Record Ti seatpost and Cambium

Added a lil sticker to apologise to anyone stuck working on my Supersix

BB30 sucks

I knew some smart alec was gunna chime in; my money was either you, or Scoble with a classic 'actual it about the mechanic who installs it'

good bait

Also basically finished the tark bike. New bars with lovely grey fizik tape on. Seen here staring in an ISIS recruitment video...

Next step is to sell the rear wheel and matching front (chub to A23, PM me offers), and build something with a low flange so it looks less mad. Maybe 24h LF Phil or DA to a Pacenti disc rim or something a bit deeper?

I'd like to take it down the track some time. Maybe next year.

No your a suck

slammed? ⊙▂⊙

no babes, I've got the stock conical spacer and a 2mm crimson one under the stem. Matches the stack of my road bike so it rides real nice. Plus I thought you were all about spacers now?

Might lower the gearing too, 55-18 is a bit of a drag with a lot of stops and starts.

Plus I thought you were all about spacers now?

Not on interweb.

Surprised the stack matches your supersix; isn't mash sloping TT?

What is that flag logo btw?

Got more stack (35mm total) on the SS due to the vagaries of trail and a2c etc etc, but both bikes are within a couple of mm of each other, fit-wise. Small frame woes; the mash TT only slopes a tiny bit, the cannondale looks like a compact frame when it should be trad geometry. ¯_(ツ)_/¯

The flag I got from the lead singer of this lot. I would put it on my Harley, but that's a bit much even for me.

Perfect London stable tbh

Nice, some small details but keeps it subtle. Is that a chubhub on the back...? Hub looks very high.

Octalink/Square tape for lyf surely...
(I'm still in 95) ;)
