  • the hippy waffle.

    Yeah but the hippy waffle is Heine's, not his really. I like the fact he's actually not gone "full Bicycle Quaterly" and added HT2 cranks, powermeter, Di2, T47 etc which you would not see on Jan's own bikes. Maybe not the bike I'd built but he's obviously experienced so what if he want a 1" steerer and rim brakes.

  • Find it odd that he thinks rim brakes are better than disc brakes for offroad though

  • He doesn't though. It was a choice he made in regard to the frame/ride characteristics. Same for the 1" headtube instead of 1 1/8".

  • As @Tijs pointed out, it's more of a forks choice than a brake one (there are very valid reasons not to want steel disc ones).
