All from on here, bar wheels and bars

are these 650b wheels ?

Nope, 700c with 38mm gravel king sk tubeless - reckon I could squeeze in 40 or even 43 gravel kings in actually

Touring version ran 42mm sport contact twos with room to spare

which forks are these?

the genesis carbon ones

@harv4130 nope - these from bikediscount.de

No complaints! Just generic Chinese jobbies I think but with a German warranty / QC (hopefully)

the genesis ones were about the same price i think so they must be on a par

Yeah the old CdF ones were - the new ones are extortionate (but also cool)

Thread bump time - had a bit of an update to my trusty Volare in the shape of some rs81s, not sure the tyres aren't hideous on this frame but they'll stay for now - wheels & tyres were meant for another bike but this gets ridden more than anything so makes sense

I miss my Volare

I thought about moving this on as I've another (allegedly nicer) steel bike that does the same job but I know i'd immediately regret it... still, that works well as a shiny Dura Ace clad clothes horse so not all bad

Just taken delivery of a day one 20. Was in the market for a commuter and to get me out on the bike more in winter.

My girlfriends Datum in commuter mode. She loves the ride but is a little underwhelmed by the looks, good reason to throw some cash at it IMO

My brother is chatting about selling his 953.. he's mad!!!

I still own it, it's just not with me at the moment. Would love a 953 though...

Got my 2014 croix de Fer back from powder coating on Monday.. so all built up..

I’ve got half of an 853 frame...

I wish mine would have fit me.

My CDF

very heavy atm but very comfy.
