silver looks so good !

Ah nice, glad you found one. The raw look is a good one too tbh..
@konastab01 I know I think it's a bit of a shame they started with the integrated ones.. Grind off the HT and get a new one put on ;)

I remember that ride!

A photo of mine from I think 2011. Back when the carpark on commercial street was a thing. Excuse the aerospokes, I was a lot younger then.

These brake levers are pleasantly shiny

shaping up great, anxiously waiting the full build to live somewhat vicariously

Well, in Hackney, you still see them all the time. I've seen two double spoks in the last two weeks.

Need to get a star nut into the steerer and the crown race on before I can finish it. Not sure when this is gonna happen.

DXR and Nitto is a welcome change from Thomson and Paul.

My chain tensioner plan has worked well enough.

White one with silver was my old V2. Last I know it was painted blue and being ridden by Levi.

@Eingang I don't need a V4... but when has need ever come into it when buying a new bike. Sore Bikes are these people - https://sorebikes.de ? Did you just need to contact them to arrange a purchase?

I don’t want to ruin my v1 for the sake of a headset. The bearing are easy to change and last, it’s more for spending money on something I don’t need!

Loved seeing this around London at that time

yes, that‘s the shop. i assume all ordered frames are already sold out as they had a lot of preorders. but always worth to ask.

Don’t do it!
Find a Chris king drop set 4 if you really want a Chris king in the Brooklyn, nice compromise with hacking your v1 up
I just found one on eBay and put it in my bmx, standard campy 45x45 bmx style headset

Im not, it was discussed a few months ago in here and its too much hassle and if i did do it and ever sold the bike it'll affect the price for sure. Ill check them out

Just went for a 2 min spin. Feels good.
