Current Projects chat and miscellany

This frame arrived today, wolber x DA, 7600 and kashimax went on, really need either a DA seatpost or a nitto one, and a nitto jaguar 100, double 25c and I think il be done for a bit. If you have these items, please get at me!

Edit* 23c tyre on the rear, time to remove a link or two

Nice sled

Finally got around to fitting mudgaurds. Perfect timing for Bogfest™ in the weekend and today's rather depressing weather.

Fork crown mounting bracket needs a bit of work. Current hack is a bit flimsy and maybe mud flaps still need trimming. I swapped front and rear mudguard stays to allow for bending around the front disc brake caliper, I think that worked well. Fork dropouts had plenty of space around the QRs, so I just drilled and tapped them for mounting the stays.

Dibs for when you sell. Looks my size...

That thing is crazy. Love it.

Awesome cakes! Big fan of the full fender look. Custom rack?

Yes. DIY stainless death trap.

@Gaston merci. White perforated bar tape and black stem would be lush on your colnago build.

Where did you find the frame?

drill out and remove current bracket
diy alu L-bracket
connect and win

i think i got gazumped by a marktplaats seller.

cheers!

I think @Scoot has some at home without a chainring.

cool, ill give her a nudge!

This is currently on the way to me from @Redd from Poland. I have DA 7800 groupset to put on but not sure about the rest. I was thinking the cheap Fulcrum 7 LG wheels and Schwalbe Ones of Wiggle and the rest from cnc-bike: Pro LT stem 1 1/8" with shim for the 1" steerer, 31.8 Pro LT compact bars and Pro RM01 headset. Regarding the seatpost I have a stripped 3T Dorico Pro or silver inline Thomson, but thinking of trying out a carbon seatpost (quite a good offer going on cnc). Saddle will be either SLR or Flite (need to upholster it though). A minor problem might be finding a decent expander/ compressor bung for the steerer. Please share your thoughts.

Don't

Nice, I kept checking up on the sales thread. Third bottle cage eyelets are an interesting feature.

@mdcc_tester roger that, is the rest sound?

@Paradroid I was checking up on the thread for 2 days, but then decided to get the frameset and sell the SLX frame I was planing to put the Dura Ace on. About a month ago there was another one sold for 80 GBP on forum. Most of them seem to pop out on marktplaats, which is logical.
It is interesting that Koga is offering almost exact frame from 1991 until 200*. Mine is a 2001, which seems to be the last Full Pro O model (later on it's called Full Pro C), here is the brochure pic

is the rest sound?

Pro bars/stems/seat posts are generally #tester_approved

+1 for Mack, ordered a similar setup from him, although I use cogs from velosolo on the rotor side and either freewheel or normal fixed cog on the other (fixed) side. He also offers spacers for different frame spacings
