MGOOF : Modern groupset on old frame

Tell that to Bardet!

But yes I agree with you, unless bars are straight underneath your shoulders, drops on classic bend bars are usually tilted a tiny bit to don’t let the hypothenar eminence take all the pressure.

In France there is an expression that can almost say that in English : This is the exception that confirms the rule.

Just finished my girlfriend's Woodrup.

SLR for a girl ?
Nice bike !

It was fun owning this.

Was?!

Yup, sold the frameset a while ago.

Cheers! It's a temporary measure as she figures out what saddle she wants. Doesn't want the same as on her other road bike as it's not sleek enough.

what headset is that?

On the white bike? Looks like it could be a cane creek of some sort..

Best to ignore the bar tape. I’ll apply the lessons learned when I swap the stem for something a bit shorter.

Overall though, I am pretty delighted.

White saddle and polished seatpost on their way.

Do love a Joe Waugh, nice build man

My Coppi

Very nicely done.

Yeah I like this...

Can I ask what that seatpost is?? Can't quite make it out..

Fugazi EC90 (the Orient's finest), I have an aero campag but that's polished and more period, so would look a bit out of place.

Going to put a slightly shorter stem on, but well chuffed with it. Some well nice details and upon closer inspection I noticed the green branding is actually metallic green paint under the yellow paint. I had assumed it was green decals.

Your front brake quick release is open. :)

Good spot!

Not a fun of yellow frames in general but this is a really cool and classy frame. I’ve never tried a Neuron frame, wonder how you rate it?

Great bike, the "superior" brother of my frame. Unlike you though, the decals are not painted on my bike unfortunately.

I'm really enjoying it. Took it out last night and blatted around the local hills, squeezed every minute of daylight. Took it out again at lunch as I'm working from home today. It's stiff and feels sprightly. But more comfortable than the Alu/carbon forked Dolan I've been commuting on. To be expected I suppose.

Nice! pics?
