MAJs gay bikes [she’s in her fitness era]

I wish renting in London felt like having a home.

The idea of having 2 sorted and usable bikes then not ever tinkering with them is just unhealthy!!

My cdf gets changed all the time, flat bar, swepy bar, drop bar, 1x10, 2x10, 1x1, basket, racks etc Very versatile frameset.

Would it make sense to turn the homer into drop bar set up as its got the same geo as your old caadx? Then keep the xl pomp for chillin and being cool as f and doing wheelies and skids?

I always try to have at least one simple bike running at all times. The rest are just collections of bike parts in constant flux.

@6pt once told me that ALL bikes should be ready to ride, by that he meant ALL bikes have:

1. Separate frame pumps on every bike
   
2. Separate tool rolls on every bike
   
3. Pedals installed
   
4. All clean and in working order
   
   

I live by this code. The joy of just changing mind last min because of weather or something and riding some other bike is beyond words.

thats actually really sound advice.

1-3 is just money. 4 is the hard part.

please stop, it'll add to his already inflated ego ;)

I definitely did not mean frame pumps you weirdo. But yes to the rest. It is a testament to my many middle aged failures that I now have a garage with ~20 bikes in and none of them are ready to ride.

tbf - its 6pt's advice rehashed in amey vision.

I tried that. I can't get it up.

Eyes up here please

It has come to me

I have rotated the 3D objects in my mind enough

What I want from this new bike

It’s so clear

feel I’ve unlocked a door to a new plane of absolutely fucking losing it

Size L pompino with the head tube of an XL
Horizontal top tube, seat tube raised to facilitate this
Vertical drop outs
40c tyre clearance
Curved blade fork
1/1 8th straight steerer
external headset
Canti Brake bosses
2 bottle cage mounts
Mudguard eyelets
Down-tube gusset
Down tube shifter mounts
Top tube rear brake routing
Rear rack eyelet
Mid blade fork boss
Bottle opener somewhere on the bike
Painted baby blue with baby pink splatter

This will be the one

The perfect pompino

The cute steel touring, cx, road, gravel, commuter, theft magnet I’ve dreamed of

The perfect compliment to an oversized, stumpy, soon to be single speeded thanks to @atk weird mtb clunker

Wow

A weight lifted

Honestly so good

Can you imagine it??

Some Miss matched ass drive train

Faux Ronny wagon, drillium levered cockpit

No seatpost

Looking like a crumpled trans flag

Blasting through the woods/ quiet way/ bridal path/ tower bridge

God

It’s the fucking dream

Sounds pretty good TBF.

the "no seatpost" part will be interesting
baby blue with pink splatter - like the splatters on the homer bike? sounds noice

Subject: Name change??

Sorry to stick my oar in, but I didn't see any documentation or sign off for this name change. Personally I don't think we can go with Rivino without making some engineering change requests, specifically, we would need "1.4: Enough space to fit a 40oz Klean Kanteen between the seat tube and rear wheel" to meet brexit rivendell BSE standards when they come into full effect next year. Is that the kind of of change we want to make this late into mood boarding? I also didn't see anything about lugs which I would expect to make an appearance as supporting evidence for the brex-riv application.

Personally I think we should stick with the original SAADX, we've already a/b tested it, it connects well with our target (depressed people) and on a personal level, I don't want to have to sit through any more change review meetings.

Thank you for reaching out, I know you’ve been swamped lately with all the streamlining so it’s only natural you miss this, especially with our dynamic product range,

The Rivino” is in reference to article 453-23, the extra large pomp with swept back bars, branding decisions have not been reversed on the saadx but we’re anticipating a soft launch when contractors are in place

If you want to speak about this further come along to the 9am all hands tomorrow and I will be reporting on it to clear up confusion

Kind regards

Maj

All clean and in working order

Ftfm.

This could be exactly what I am looking for too. I can't wait to see the finished article

However the paint choice scares me. I am assuming most components will be silver? Then perhaps a more classic/subtle look would suit it more?

I can't get it up

We've all been there buddy....

Most components will be black, it’s essentially all the bits off the other pomp bar wheels and chainset, want some ugly alloy wheels for it too, shallow, black, maybe mis match, will have the TVM stem from the homer

An antithesis of wank, post wankerism, critical wank theory, wankalectic,

Somewhere between a a parts bin special, rat bike and long time B/S/T lurker
