So i went and sold my escapade, a thing i regretted about 2 seconds later. After that i started to look for a new bike, but didn't really find anything interesting enough so after some consideration i decided to get something custom made. Some time and many emails later, i paid deposit to rychtarski and now we're playing the waiting game. Got first parts couple weeks ago, and finally today a picture of frame in progress:
Geometry is pretty basic stuff: 73 degree angles, 75mm bb drop. 520x545mm. Only thing different from traditional road bike geo is tyre room; i really want to use my loved kojaks, so rear end and fork length are bit longer to accomodate 35c tyre, and instead of long reach road brake i decided to go canti (or mini-v in my case)
Columbus max f+f
Reach 372, stack 566.
Ral 2008
Have so far:
Ultegra groupset (mostly)
Hope headset
Kojaks
Trp 8.4
More component shopping later when i get more dorrahs from work...
