Terrified

That neither starts with spec or ends in ized....

points deducted for not picking rims with stickers that match the paint job. Looks like it's pretty rad though.

Why not:

(EDIT: just realised the typo, but shall leave for posterity)

Ottolock became available for preorder:
https://ottodesignworks.com/shop/ottolock

Seems like a pretty decent lock, anyone pre-order it yet?

"SPECIALISED" ftw

That Cannondale is lovely.

If only!

(EDIT, ok, will stop spamming thread now. Should do some stenciling this weekend)

Thought it would look cool, all good fun!

I'm always a bit dubious about lightweight locks, given how easy it is to break through some "proper" locks. I reckon a smack with a hammer to the locking mechanism might undo that. Might be useful as a cafe lock though

Makes me want a spesh just so I can respray and​ put these on!

@Thrust where did you find that? Ive a world wide search on Serotta's on the interwebz.

Holy hell, if this was my size I would actually pay that much.

TESTIALIZED?

Is that even a real word?

Testicalized?

It's dead stock mate. Rims are knackered so they'll get switched to NOS GEL330 32h if I can source them

GEL330

GL330 or GEL280 (handy hint - avoid the GEL280s)

Ah yes, true. Yeah I heard the 280s are for lightweights and are prone to crack.

The paint on this is lovely. Just an excuse to get used to my new camera really.

How do people put deda peigas in quill stems if they can't use the coin trick?
i.e. without the threaded stem clamp bit.

EDIT: Did it. Just took a bit of worming.

worming

😐

I've got that to look forward too - some Nitto compact bars to get through a Nitto dynamic stem. Hopefully can use a coin on the dynamic stem and plenty of grease (and worming)

let's swap frames?
