  • Finally accumulated most of the parts so I can start putting together this Rock Lobster Ti frame. Can't quite keep up with @ectoplasmosis levels of ano madness, but going for a similar neo-retro Ti build.

    Plan is for rigid carbon forks, 1x11 drivetrain, 650b wheels with "gravel" tyres and flat bars. Still trying to work out the optimum bar/stem dimensions. I've also got a pair of 26" Hope/Stans wheels with proper MTB tyres which should get me through the mud a bit better.

  • Nice! These are great frames, love the webbed dropouts. Will you be sanding off the clear coat and taking it back to raw Ti? New decals are easy to source.

    There are plenty of 440mm AtoC Pace RC31 carbon forks around, check Retrobike forums.

    Make a dedicated project thread!

  • I’ve got the same frame so close to finishing my build but I ended up buying a cheapo exotic carbon fork with 1mm clearance between the caliper and hub, gotta find a cheap pace rigid pace I think
