Cinelli Mash Parallax Cyanotype 2017 (completed)

Also, do you people exclude tubeless? I'm tempted by the idea of additional comfort and safety but at the same time I never really had any issue with tubes.

What about H+Son archetype?

@danslecarton thanks for the link. Just to make sure I get this right:

RR511, R460 -> DT Swiss
XR31T, XR22T -> Kinlin

Is that correct?

Yes :) skidding and tubeless is relatively unknown territory but I reckon it should be okay

I don't think I'm planning to do much of the first and the tubeless, not a deal breaker. For what I'm reading so far it's great and all good until it doesn't fail, so I guess I am happy to stay with my cheap tube, if it breaks, you change it without too much fuss nor mess.

Decisions, decisions, decisions... so the frame arrived on Friday (pictures to follow) but I can't make up my mind on components. The only think I decided to far is the wheelset which is going to be a black/stealth one on H+ Son Archetype and that's pretty much it.

More and more people on pedal room are also demistifying the problem with the crank arm rubbing the from tyre which mean I will likely settle for either a Rotor 3D24 or a Miche Pistard Air whichever one I will find cheaper.

But what about the rest? What about chain, stem, bar and seatpost (which is to be setback)? Ideas?

I will also put a front brake and two levers, because legality and because I like simmetry but that also means I need to fint a centre pull brake and I can't really find anything but the Tririg Omega X which I'm not even sure where can be sourced. Heeeeeeelp please!!!! :-)

Ok, so, this is what the shopping list look so far.

Crankset/Bottom Bracket:
Sugino SG75 DD Black with MB608 steel bottom bracket

Chainring:
Sugino Zen Black 49T

Sprocket:
Sugino Fixed Black set 16T, 17T and 18T and I then have to find a 19T to use meanwhile I build up my legs back

Chain:
Wipperman 1R8 for reliability or Wipperman Connex 100 for aehestetic being almost black and a better fit for the overall look of the bicycle

Handlebars/Stem/Seatpost:
Deda Zero1 set or Fizik Cyrano R5 the latter has 25mm set back but I actually need 20mm. Will that be a huge difference? Common sense would say no because I can always move the saddle 5mm forward

Brakes:
Campagnolo TT Centre Pull

Wheels/Hubs:
H+ Son Archetype + Sapin Double Butter Race spokes + Goldtext Black track hubs in a 28 holes setup front and rear, wearing a 25mm tubeless Schwalbe One.

Pedals:
Shimano 105 5800 SPD SL

Opinions?

Brakes:
Campagnolo TT Centre Pull

Why and how would you make it work?

@Breso legality, emergency braking just in case, and symmetry.

I was thinking about using this for the dual lever and then a setup similar to the following.

Forty quid for that splitter? Blimey.

@GideonPARANOID I'm not even sure it's needed, maybe two cables can fit fine into the hanger.

I think @Breso was asking why you would want a centre pull brake over a standard linear pull one? You would need some sort of head tube cable hanger thing

I wasn't questioning the presence of the brake itself, but more why choosing such bad caliper.
Check at least the total height of the system (caliper, cable stop and minimum straight run of the outer cable from the top).
I assume that if you have a short headtube, with crosstop levers close to the stem, there won't be much room for outers, let alone the huge splitter!

I choose that caliper mostly because of my obsession with symmetry I suppose. Thanks for the reminders, I actually didn't think about it I'll keep that in mind.

I would suggest to fit a drivetrain each side of the bike then!

@Breso don't say it twice :-)

And finally, after a long wait, it's time for some serious porn unboxing, enjoy...

Nice parts you got there

Thanks man, I am really excited, I can't wait for it to be completed.

Build it wisely

I'll try my best, I guess this will be just a start, moving forward in time upgrades will surely come

And the brake arrived too with the added cable doubler
