  • I think they should have stayed with Compass and dropped the name of a builder who the company uses as an inspiration.

  • Likewise^
    Other brand seems a bit niche

  • If you look in the comments you'll see he's trying to plan to bring back frame building to the 'brand'

  • Has anyone made reflective mud flaps? And even better has anyone made a flap to extend the front of the front mudguard?
    I reckon a nice reflective extra but will

    1. Catch some of the mud and spray that flies everywhere at speed
    2. Catch some of the dynamo light above it and reflect nicely

    Any off cuts of material lying about needing a home?

  • Better on the rear than front.

    Get a Brompton mudflap and drill hole.

  • René, not Rene you heathen.

    I guess we can expect "René Her- See" too :-(

  • sorry I seem to have acutely hurt you

  • Now we’ve decided to bring our entire program into Rene Herse Cycles to reflect our commitment to René Herse’s values

    Rene Herse® is a registered trademark.

    I don't think they use the accent in the branding. They use it to refer to the person but not he products

  • Good point. I wrote on their Insta post...

  • I simply asked why they changed the spelling for the trademark. Plus it's present on the logo.

  • Meral is back. I'm not 100% convinced by that very bike, but I think it's great that Cyfac will be making OTP, more affordable frames.

  • Those Sun XCD crankset is awesome.

  • I'm not 100% convinced by that seatpost.

  • Also as was pointed out on pignonfixe.com when it was announced, the rear wheel has been incorrectly laced.

  • And the front.

    Front is only 1 hole out where the rear is 2 but it's still wrong.

  • Pompino with custom fork and specialized pizza rack. Test drive with heavy bag passed. I wasn't sure about the DIY fork crown mount, but it works.
    Great for commuting to work, winter ready.

  • Very cool. Front rack looks like it's squishing the mudguard into the wheel though.

  • Nah.. Proper bodge job tho..

  • I didn't think there would be others foolish enough to opt for a 1" threaded disc fork

  • One of my friends had a 26" lugged 1" singlespeed frame built custom about 10 years ago.
    It is very pretty but flexes like nothing else I've seen or ridden.

  • Yeah, I don't like my shifters level either.
