  • you dont believe in fork mounted cable stop?

  • Well Enve don't

  • This is so good. Drill a hole in the stem and route through that?

  • Mmm I rather not, but let's see what happens

  • I’ve never done it - I imagine it gives a lot of judder. I would probably have put trp cx9 on. Tradeoff mud clearance for judder free stopping power.

  • Yeah, I have been there. But this is a dbad build. Frame was constructed around these brakes

  • Not sure which model you've got but Tektro 1275AT.1 is the model with the additional 5mm clearance off the front (vs. 1274AT.1). Might save you a few quid

  • Thanks, didn't know that. Got the Paul one trade so it didn't hurt as much.

  • Lookin' goo-ood

  • Thanks. Took some daylight photos after work today, but it is hard to really capture the colour. It just looks black :)

  • Also, keep black decals on rims or get loud white ones?

    Edit: black Specialized Roubaix bartape or Fizik Microtex in dark grey like the saddle?

  • amazing

  • Black decals grey tape

  • Just saw this IRL it's absolute 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

  • Grey tape, black decals. I think the stayer logos look a bit naff on the wheels tbh, White makes this worse

  • Ok fair enough. They are B I G. I could get them to make me some smaller ones I guess.

  • I say white makes them worse. What I mean is white makes them bad, but black is not bad

    In my irrelevant opinion.
    But I’m all for ignoring everyone’s opinion and building the bike how you want it. Eg Amey’s dbad and everyone trying to bully me into hydro brakes

  • Yeah. I will keep em black then and try grey bar tape.
    EDIT: Why would you want brakes made of water?

  • Have you considered hydraulic disc brakes? They're quite good.

  • I’m sure they’re excellent but everybody did fine before they came about and I quite like my bitey cable discs. Don’t need any of this poncey modulation crap. I can endo my Arkose seated if I like

  • I regularly find that brakes slow me down

  • HOPSAN!

    This photo makes me relax. Unfortunately I am going on a field trip to Lyon tomorrow so I wont ride this until 9 days from now :-(

  • Go to the Parc
    tete d'or and say hi to the monkey on the island for me.

    The bike iz banging. No hydro. No grey bartape. No white rim decals. More Rothko than Pollock, or if all else fails just don't shit a bollock.
