Sven Custom 853

The orange headset looks great with the paint tbh!

Repost for the new page, this is absolutely spot on. I was pretty gutted this frame is too small for me

Cheers. Really happy with how it has come together.

How're you getting on with this?

Late to the party. Actually barely ridden this since COVID stuff. We're returning to the office next week here in QLD, so took this for a bike fit last week to get it dialled against my Parlee which I've been training on for race season.

Need to fit a 110mm stem per the fit, so I'm going to take the opportunity to make a few changes to make this a genuine daily driver, poor weather training bike and mile muncher. Expect some colour matching features in the coming weeks. #jacarandalife

What’s the limit of taste? Matching: stem, frame pump, mudguards, seatpost, bars?

Australia right? No limits

Seatpost and bars is too much I think.

Okay then.

Been silently jealous of this bike and I'm hyped to see those fitted!

What's the Bowman in the background?

Do you also own a Cervélo?:)

Also think that you can't have to much purple!

Haha. No dentists in this household, only attendees of events with needless free bags.

More info on the Bowman here. https://www.lfgss.com/conversations/319133/

Currently out of service with no future plans. Would sell it, but still love the look of the frame.

'Guards, stem and pump fitted. Gonna get some black tyres as the tan kinda detract from the frame and then were done. Rode it in today, 'guards didn't fall off and kill me.

Temp arrangements.

👌

Looks wicked

That is all kinds of awesome

Nice!

Now that you've gone that far, purp SP would blend in nicely

...or a purple chain. Jokes aside, the bike looks absolutely spot on. I actually quite like the look with the gum walls but black tyres are probably a better option for an all-weather bike.

Bowman's old designs are WAY nicer than new.

Also - dibs purple bike!

Looks amazing! I don't think you need to change from tan tyres IMO.

Summer mode.
