• The guys there are great so would strongly reccomend!

  • Frame is the 62cm.

    I'm 6'2" and the saddle height is 840cm in the photo.

  • I'm 6'3 and I went with a 60, pic here. Just to muddy the waters ;)

  • Shout out to the Harry Rowland wheel club. :)

  • Looks great!

    The fit will be good on this as it has almost identical stack and reach to my Shand. I have disproportionally long legs for my height.

  • Haha, yes! Those wheels are off to their new owner now though.

  • These arrived this morning. I have the weirdest (utilitarian) boner.

  • Nice! Let me know if you ever sell it ;)

  • I want bolt on skewers for this but I don't want Pitlock or any other security types.

    Are the Halo ones any good?

    I'm not that keen on quick release.

  • I have pitlock kit, hardly used if you are keen.

  • A proper enclosed cam Shimano QR will be more secure than Allen key skewers

  • I've snapped several Halo skewers, currently using M parts ones, they have a pin in the allen bolt, so only the supplied allen key works. They hold tight, never have a problem with loose wheels.

  • That's what I use too. Allen attached to my keys. I've ridden in them off road and they've not budged once.

    @Eamesy Noiiiiice! love my supernovas. That triple is a monster, It's not the most well mirrored so can cause oncoming people to be blinded.

  • i'm 6.3 too and thought about the 58 due to stack/reach

  • DT Swiss RWS? front on sale here. Just need to then find a 135 rear without breaking the bank.

  • Nice !

  • What's the weight of the frame like?

  • Big ass tyres

  • Thanks but I think I'll just get some Shimano skewers!

  • Looking at rear light mounting for the Supernova Tail Light.

    I'm thinking of mounting to the right hand side rear rack stay. I don't have enough space on the seat post or under the seat clamp due to saddlebag and I don't really want to use p-clips on the stays.

    I'm thinking of removing the 2.5mm bolt of the light and then somehow directly attaching it to the rack stay.

    The rack stay takes a 5mm threaded bolt and the Supernova 2.5mm unthreaded.

    Could I get a suitably long 2.5mm bolt and use washers to fill the space inside the rack stay? Or I have seen these shoulder screws but not sure if I could get the right size.

  • Ive got mine of my right mudguard braze on, its very neat and out the way.

  • Except I mounted it on the other side for wiring purposes.

  • Jagwire Rocket II adjuster fits perfectly into the SRAM mtn rear mechs (Shimano too) if you wanted to have a barrel adjuster in the normal position...

  • Thanks I actually did this on my macho man. My Croix de fer's first owner used down tube shifters with it so I can use the little bolt on adjusters there which has proved handy.
