beautiful!

so after the headset headache saga the pomp lives! still in doubt if enough scoblebricks because the frame annoyingly is a large instead of a medium as advertised. still works and fits though, but not sure if i keep the 120mm stem and swap for 110mm and install tester topcap.
plan is to add rack, cable up rear brake, get the missing bolt from the front mudguard, tidy up the mudguard clearance on the rear and fit a slightly longer v-brake on the front due to interference with the mudguard.
rack plan might make it 10 long tons though, its heavy as hell.
edit: excuse shocking pictures

If the stem is too long why not try flipping it?

I've got a Red22 big ring, 53t and never fitted or used. Let me know if you're keen...

The turd has been polished, I <3 the red bike shop's parts bin.

Possibly interested if @larsenroad isn't...

Rad. Not that turdy to start with tbf

Do you reckon the Ergon grips for swept back bars are worth it? Over the standard ones?

We were talking about them a week or two back in this very thread.

Finally had the time to grind these cranks to fit a standard ring. Now spring just needs to come

what brand is that crankset?

Falling Soon Apart

red or black ?

I'd go with black, easier to keep clean and I think the white writing on the red doesn't really match with the other parts. My 2 cents.

black. hands down.

Red!

can put the red on this one....

Tijs ? : )

and do a comparison gif too.

this looks very non-gaston. classy and keep it that way!

fsa vigorelli track

I was joking, the branding on it is super obvious

LOL 😆
