I think I prefer the look of the 1a to the Salsa FWIW
I do too, tbh.
I would welcome a cheaper source for 26.0 quill stems with a bit of rise (or for Decathlon to keep making their 25.4 compact drops).Salsa are nice enough but when you're really only after something that works, it is annoying that they cost £100, and something more or less the same with a 25.4 clamp is a tenner.

Nitto technomic aren't cheap, but less than 100. They come in 26 and have long shafts. (Ha).
Also @Rik_Van_Looy what are those beautiful cranks on your rih?
This thread and the one with the tip find Mercian make me want to build a bike.
Haven't even finished the last project though.
An excellent result - really love the fork.
fabulous work
