Hot Chocolate - Open U.P.

Could get into business haha - send a PM. @Howard

like that tape with it. But you need to change that awful saddle..

looks fucking good on 700s tbf

Haha yes saddle is just a dummy- Need other brackets for mounting the fizik...

Well - everything set now - first ride done- clogged with mud- very plush with a taste of beefyness

Make sure you protect the paint on that seat tube somehow. Or get 650b wheels, up to you...

damn, this will be a HOT bike!

I had some problems uploading pictures ... Next try

looks mean!

ok I understand the brown now

looks wicked

If give that seat tube about four weeks

It does look very very tight..

Yea - I'd be helitaping the shit out of it

That might just plug the gap

I'd be going down to 35mm tyres, or 650b if fat rubber is needed.

Tru dat. But if I had to run it in that set-up it's what I'd try before more structural changes. You'd find out quickly and inexpensively if it would work or not.

I'm confused tho - it's not like it's being run outside of its intended parameters* - the show case on their site features 40c nanos.

Having said that, there's a nice disclaimer:

exact tire sizes depend on manufacturing tolerances and rim width, so this is a guideline. Always make sure you have 6mm clearance between tire and frame

* what language is this?!

@Howard swiss guys always sound strange.
I will keep a Sharp aye on the seattube.
Sticked some protector tape from Zefal on it. Seems ok for now. Clearance is the only drawback - otherwise rides really great.
Babylon is burnt at the moment- but 650ties are next on the list.
