So on to the current projects....
1) Road disc. After some great debate and much hesitation, I've finally decided on a Cinelli Nemo Tig Disc. Flicks all my switches in that it's nice quality steel, the geo is perfect for me, has flat mounts and thru axles. Won't get the frameset for 10 weeks, but very excited about it. Means a winter of fixed gear, but that's probably what I'd ride in the filth anyway.
2) Trail hardtail. Going for a Stanton Sherpa as it'll take 29er XC wheels and 650b+ wheels for 2 different bikes in one. 29er XC wheels for long days in the saddle (thinking about the SDW double, there I've said it so now I've got to do it). And 27.5 x 3.0 for more trail action. Most of the running gear/kit will be coming from my superfly as I sold that as a frame/fork/wheels.
3) The Victoire CX will be getting a frameset swap in around Feb. Ordered a Spooky Gas Mask. Absolutely love the Victoire, it's a stunning bike and rides beautifully, but the toe over lap is a little more than I'd like so going to try something new.
So plenty going on, so thought I'd document things here as I go. Lots of decisions to make on kit etc.
