Isen workshop: adventures in batch production (or not...)

Flat mount only I'd guess, those adaptors chuck them out really fat.

Far

Same for 57cm?

I'll offer it up, but probably. The issue is the adaptor throws the caliper further out than the original post mount would have sat at, so although the frame would be able to take a post mount without much issue, it's a lot harder with the adaptor.

Do we know the di2 cable lengths yet?

No , madison have stopped responding to my emails and I'm waiting on a junction box so I can work out for coming build. I wouldn't stress too much about the cables though, inasmuch as they are never going to be out of stock, I even carry all lengths so worst case you can get them from me.

Sorry, ignore me: will be a Shimano group.

I think you should have to pay twice as much as everybody else for your fame due to your daily influx of random questions taking up so much of Matts time and slowing down the production of everybody else's frames.

Infamy, more like.

LOL.
Took me a minute or two to get that one. Damn you auto correct. Frame, not fame!

Just asking the questions others haven't got to yet!

Are you riding to Hill for cake tomorrow?

Hill for cake?

Do you not know about the village called Hill? Once a month the women's institute there bake cakes for cyclists. People come from Bristol, Cardiff Cirencester gloucester.

You're always welcome to question, just don't kick my volvo ;)

So my plan was to put Potenza on my Isen

Buy Matt said he'd set Noah on me

So I ordered 6800 through BC, just too keep him sweet and Noah at a manageable distance.

But now the 'old' calipers aren't available so I'm part of the Shimano/Madison clusterfuck waiting game.

#csb but bloody annoying...

They're really fucking me up. @dancing James what have you managed to get so far?

I have dura ace hydro di2 brakes and stis

I have non series 11/34 cassette

6800 clamp band

Di2 ultegra front and rear mechs are now delayed until mid September.

Basically new ultegra di2 is still not available and shimano are fucking everyone in Europe around as the Germans are also showing delayed release dates now.

Edit:Nevermind

Suddenly my vague idea to hold out for 1x etap doesn't look so far-fetched.

There's going to be a first World problem crisis of monumental proportions if this goes on much longer. I may start a campaign...

I'm putting an XTR rear caliper on my new bike with a new Ultegra flat mount on the front.

Your telling me, I'm so angry about it I'm frothing mad over my quinoa and buckwheat artisan made muesli this morning.
