Current Projects chat and miscellany

Actually, looking at it again, it's literally the same photo, just flipped.

We never blame someone for a double flip-repost but what is more noticeable is that you did not have seen my link Blue lugs under my first Image...

@gaston t’as pas de gravel encore ?

Blue lugs...

Yes, which claimed to come from BL SELECT and not Serfas.

New fork, tyres and guards for the dolan. Brake isn't quite long enough, does anyone have a mid-reach caliper knocking about? Or, how far down the arm would filing be reasonable...?

Last week spent on long overdue rebuild of my 10 year old Wilier. Fit and ride are absolutely perfect for me, and I love its lairy euro styling. Definitely deserved better than the stock veloce / FSA bits. Now has chorus group, carbon bars and post and eurus wheels (aero wheels next). Yes I am a total campagnolo tart!

Ps. Sorry about crank and valve stem positions

Good shout! I found one now in any case

Why do all front brakes come with that bit of tape on one of the arms? I've never been able to figure it out

Doesn't it protect that arm from the other arm, when not under tension from a cable? That was always my guess

Winner winner.

Callipers and hoses routed this evening. My room ended up in a mess with even the simplest of job. So you get to see the wall.

A carbon seatpost has made my bike more comfortable. Who knew?

The wear of the brake bands is not too early on these rims?
Awesome RAD bike man.
Tubing ID ? Spirit ?

Those are the machines machined sidewalls versions.

The bikes I have built or updated recently.

On the Orlowski, changed the front rack, seatpost, stem (silver spacer stack integrated tig welded stem to come) and made myself some mudflaps.

Previous versions

Pomp and M500 update

With the 1x10 from the pomp.

back to singlespeed

and now

And two new builds.
A conversion just for fun.

And a new comfy daily commuter following the old mtb revival hype.
Frame is stainless steel.

I'll share more pictures on my own thread for those who are interested.

Thanks, it’s Columbus Life.
Wheels have maybe 3k miles on them. They were all-grey when new, but one wet season takes care of that pretty quickly. The wear is nice and even, not like the old CD coating that used to wear only around the spokes.
