So good! I wish my Marin was this good.
Love the stem. How long is the steerer in there? Did you lengthen it?I’ve been thinking about brazing disc tabs to mine as I bought it with disc hubs. But can’t find the time with a toddler on my hands :-) now I want to make a stem too. Fuck..

The stem was really fun to make! 120mm stack, 66,6mm reach and zero deg. Had to lengthen the steerer about 80mm give or take.
The V-brakes are surprisingly good paired with 5700 brifters. Better than the JuinTechs paired to 5800 brifters that I have on my Pelago Sibbo that's for sure. I have some cheapo Shimano mech disc brakes but it'd still be a 300€ wheelset (26" semi wide rim, tubeless, DT Comps, SP dynamo) which is a bit too much right now considering all my other projects and the fact that the current brakes work great. Brazing on the disc tabs is the easy part and just a couple of hours of work.

New rd and shiftmate. Drilled more holes for threaded inserts. Still debating on brazing on some disc tabs. Would give me an excuse to build a new set of wheels :)
