Damn tasty.
Kickstand id?
I always question the stand lifting the rear wheel off the floor, I always think having it level so both wheels and stand legs touch is the most stable?

Thought this beast must have been posted somewhere on here :-)
Question perhaps for @t0-ster
I'm considering getting an Ominium, although at 6'7" I'm wondering if the XL will be big enough? The sizing chart suggests so, but I've read ( possibly here ) that it's best to size up on an Omnium, which in my case would unfortunately not be possible
It does look pretty big

One thing the lockdown hasn't been able to stop me doing yet is bike tinkering.
Thanks to the awesome guys at SBC cycles and their high speed wheelbuilding I now have a fully rebuilt rear wheel on the Omnom.
Same 8 speed Alfine hub(for now), 50mm deep x 26mm wide carbon rim, Schwalbe G-One speed 1.5" tyre, Gates cdx 24t sprocket, kcnc razor rotor and centerlock adaptor, hexlox Alfine wheelnuts...set up tubeless with schwalbe tape and orange sealant.
Also just fitted some new Time atac speciale 8 pedals.
The Chainset is a Middleburn 'road' RO2 x-type, chosen as it gives a better belt line for the Gates, with a Middleburn outboard BB and a 50t Gates Alfine specific ring.
Hopefully the front wheel will be ready next week. Using a 38mm deep x 26mm wide carbon rim, a Mack disc hub, and a Schwalbe G-One speed 1.5" tyre.
All that remains then are my custom titanium 'mini Jones' loop bars to arrive and it's pretty much finished!
I'm just grateful that at the moment I've still been able to keep hold of my second job which allows me to still ride it! ❤️
