Hunting for a black chainring. Cranks arrived at work, will get them tomorrow.
Apologies for the non-pretty hoods, I want to sit out of the wind on this route & I don't use drops unless I'm near the brake cos...Tektro ones ain't pretty, any pretty brake hood suggestions for small fingers welcome.
Here's a mockup, stem is ITM Eclype, seatpost will be replaced with a Nitto S65 in Silver cos that one is ugly on this build.

Why does that saddle look like a post-ejaculated cock?
-
• #62
Heh :):)
I hadn't made that association yet... I call them "dali inspired"Selle SMP: They shape them like that as hipbones aren't round. The droopy nose is for riding out of the saddle/not catching your shorts. Not lookers for sure...then, neither is the bodypart you refer to :P
I've another model that goes on btw, it's not quite as ugly...

I have a 49t black BLB/Andel chainring you can have if you like.
Seen here, barely used.

Ballix, star nut won't come out & front brake drop is too short (all city forks have massive clearance)
Good news though...means more black parts as I think silver front brake doesn't look that great leading to more bumblebee points :)
May got for black seatpost / stem too need to throw it together, decide colours and then spend ;)

Option 2: Clashy bumblee potatochop
Also an option, black S65 (they come in 27mm though harder to find) and black SG75, black brake/levers...

What are the chances of the frame exactly matching the powder coated yellow of the Alter?
(... In unrelated news...)
I have a 110mm Alter in silver (black clamp & graphics ) to match your silver crank and black chainring/silver hub/spokes & black rims :-) -
• #68
Clashy yellow risk indeed :)
Tx, but I think 110 is just a touch too long for me :/
Hunting a black one on ebay but the bidding frenzy is already starting with 9 days to go... O_o

and for stems i can vouch for syntace 26.0mm ones. you need a shim for 1" but theyre sleek and nice
-
• #71

-
• #73

Black DA rings going ATM on ebay maybe they go cheap?
Thomson do 27.0 seatposts. Lovely build. The wheels look great
