Just wait until the chainrings are toast, for the asking price of new Shimano chainrings you can almost get the full crank.

It's GRX. It'll LOOK like it's toast after a couple of rides

I hope so.

Confused, why are there pictures of bikes in a comedy argument thread?

New cages, moron me fitted the last ones with 3mm Allen key non stainless bolts... that was a pain.

Very very nice.

Such versatile framesets!!

Best frame I ever got.

Wife has my “spare” also loves it coming from a carbon everything roadie.

Ive toyed with getting another Niner rlt alot over the last 6 months. But since the drop bar re build of the Rapture, I've fell in love with riding it again!

I couldnt part with it, although I need to sort the missing cable stops out. May get a local framebuilder to braze some on for me?

Imagine spending all that money and having to shift with a MTB trigger near the stem. And cork bar ends FFS.

Check with Tom @ windwave!

Ridiculous.

Isn’t this one built by the builder for themselves?

Oh, how I miss #rep

this looks really ace

Second hand Bokeh frameset, what sort of price is sensible?

I hope not.
I don't expect a frame builder to have taste.
But I expect them to mount a rack a bit better. Also how wet will the 500$ light get.

I was told a few years ago “frame builders can build Frames but never trust them to build a bike”

He was proven right when the next custom built bike comes in, CK bb in dry, shocking bar tape, frame was not straight so they dished the wheel over etc!

I’ve got one arriving on Monday 😂

frame was not straight so they dished the wheel

Sounds like they can't build a frame either.

The paint was nice though.

I also wouldn't let my framebuilder friend build a bike for me.

But rack placement, in my opinion, is part of their job.

its tragic, right!

These rock, we have to recognise a true heads bike when we see it
