• Yeah I really like the silver bars and stem.
    I finished my Nomad with raw/polished finishing kit. Removed the anodising from the cranks and polished them, stem, seat clamp and pedals all raw. The bars and seatpost are still to do. Been looking for a silver 31.6 Thomson forever.
    I have axs on my Mtb, it’s great but if I’m honest the real main appeal is the elimination of cables. It just looks very neat having only brake hoses showing.
    I’m constantly watching eBay for cheap gx axs

    Oooh any pictures? I'm definitely thinking of doing the same for next years Marino build! How are the polished aluminium surfaces holding up in terms or oxidising?

    Lol 🙄

  • Cranks half way through the process.
    Thought about using the special sauce to remove the anodising from my black Thomson but the polishing would maybe remove a tiny amount of material causeing it to slip 🤷‍♀️
    Need to find a good photo of the whole bike

  • Oooh any pictures?

    Soz I'm not great at taking good photos of my bikes...

    Would like silver post and bars but maybe too far? Wouldn't really see it under the mud anyway 🤷‍♂️
    Used to run this bike single speed with a polished SBone tensioner which tied together well with crankset. Black derailleur needs to be silver too really.
