Cielo Classic Sportif

You mean compressed the housing, which can be sorted by squeezing the brake levers several time on the workstand to compress it enough so you won't need to wait till it's compressed enough to close the calliper.

must spread rep for Senor Bear.. blah blah

really nice mr bear, looks a bit diddy though with that much post and stack on the stem? fettling with setup still?

Nah, I'm always a 56. Every time I've had a bike as a 58 it's proved too long for me.

The stack is for comfort.

bigger seat-tube? i'm old school, my bike are never square and i like to only have the fist-full of seat post, so i usually have 60st, 57tt but it's definitely more common to see the high stack high seat post thing (but strangely still horizontal tt?)

great looking bike you got there anyway, makes me keen to pick up mine from the sprayshop!

nice bike, but i think you could have done a better spray job, those bloody amateurs at ck, eh..?

I bought two 2.5mm patches of leather on eBay and a new blade for my scalpel. I reckon that'll be ok. Lasers sound cool though.

Burn the edges with a lighter...

Does it fray otherwise? Or is that to replicate the laser effect?

the former

the latter

you're a latter.

Upgrades!
