• That rear dropout is ugly.

    And you think on a custom bike you could avoid zip ties.

    And no idea why the customer didnt build with hydro, weird call.

  • The holy trinity of Klampers + Chris King + WI ensures that John Probs will feature your bike on the Radavist.

  • You’ll have to excuse the zip ties on the dropout, Blacksmith was waiting on an adhesive at the time.

  • That rear dropout is ugly.

    I'm inclined to agree. It's a Paragon Machine Works item, and it works perfectly well, but I've never understood why builders leave the long flat plate section on the DS chainstay. It's necessary on the NDS as that's where the flat mount caliper mount lives, but on the DS it just seems unnecessarily fugly. Other than that, I don't find them too offensive.

  • The chainstay taper and angle certainly isn't doing it any favours

  • Thanks for saving me the time posting that. Nice frame (assuming the hanger isn’t standard). Awful build.
