Functional bikes. Not Porn not Anti

What a Boomer thing to say

Boomers always know what's right.

Do you know what the green jacket is called/who made it in 1964?

I'm actually Gen X, but am rather old fashioned in some ways, so you could be right.

Everything you don't understand is either wrong or not worth your time is definitely boomer attitude

I think it's probably a French mountain smock.

Easy tiger. Next time I'll hunt out the sarcasm emoji. But like I said, you could be right.

:)

Any functional builds with matching silver Thomson post and bars?

The hunt for a good looking silver ahead is exhausting. Someone enlighten me.

What angle, clamp size?
Nitto, SIM Works.
I like Thomson, I wouldn't say they're good looking though.

Ritchey classic

Buy your favorite stem and then polish it yourself?

Nitto, always nitto

VO?
Simworks?

I've got a 100mm fillet brazed/chrome Nitto Craft. PM me if you're interested.

Thank you for all the sugestions - I think I've narrowed it down to a silver Thomson or one the CNCd Nittos.

@TheBonk sounds great but I need 110 sadly. Thanks for the offer.

The VO inline post is great looking imo

French fender day on Instagram has been great. So much rando.

Way way uncomfortable if you wanna it to be precisely like a race bike, the bar like that with the levers mean the bar itself act like a hood rather than your hand on the brake “hood” of those old brake levers.

A bike without guards has won ‘best touring bike’ at Bespoked. Is this a sign of the end times?

You'll be telling me next it was 1x, I do despair at what we've become.

Probably best to avoid social meedja this weekend.

bicycle apocalypse.

This is about as social as my media gets. Don't do fb, insta, or twatter.
