MGOOF : Modern groupset on old frame

wanted to know if its possible to put a wireless system such as Di2/EPS/ETap onto the frame?

Wireless should be easy :) I put di2 on mine. https://www.lfgss.com/conversations/335169/

V nice 👌

re: 31.8 quill stems with negative angle: Nitto makes one, but silver only. And I think VO is working on getting a batch made of theirs with negative angle iirc.

That would be good. They did mention it when the original ones came out but haven't seen anything else. The nitto is lovely although hard to find and quite heavy. I contacted BLB and at some unknown time in the future they are getting in more Factory 5s

Factory 5

What does this do that the eBay ones 1/3 of the price don’t?

Nothing. Definitely tempted by the eBay specials. However I've read a few reviews saying machining isn't as good and screws are a bit shoddy so undecided yet. Also would have to pay customs etc, whereas through BLB no need. All decisions!

Cheers! I bought the bike as a complete build a couple weeks ago with the intention of using the parts on another frame. The bike came with a long mtb stem and narrow flatbars and didn’t exactly feel great. I wanted to try a short stem with risers on an older mtb for a while, so I gave it a try on this one and I gotta say it feels really nice. First time sprinting out of the saddle was a bit scary and twitchy but after a few minutes you get used to it and it feels agile and lively. Would recommend :)

Seen someone riding this in SE5 yesterday... wasn’t you?

Def not.

not bad.

I know the stem looks wrong but I need to get used to the petrifying steering for a while.

I think I need a deep section rear rim.

Is this not a TT bike/ bullhorns?

Lovely corsa extra. Want one myself so I can finally put my Telekom jersey on. 😉

Thought this question might be relevant in this thread...
What are the most attractive downtube cable stops and barrel adjusters anyone has found? Looking to replace the plastic monstrosities on a build.

Try these

Dura Ace are silver, Campagnolo Record are black.

That is quite possibly the ugliest garmin mount I've ever seen. .... And garmin mounts are already incredibly ugly things.

It would have only taken an extra 5 minutes on the computer to make that thing 50% less ugly.

Not only that, the F3 cycling form mount might have also fit.

No it wouldn't, for two reasons.

1. I have M6 bolts and that mount only has room for M5
   
2. There is no adjustment of angle so the F3 would be pointing up at 21º
