Thoughts:
I think I really want to use a bar end shifter (duraace / XTR) 2x10 set up on the AC for quirkyness and I've wanted that kind of set up since seeing this:
It'll have low gearing, wide-ish bars, high stack, it'll be weighty but smooth etc, not meant for fast rides but chill rides kind of bike....It will get a dynamo front wheel at some point too.
Then im going to paint the Transition rapture frame+fork+stem to give it that new feeling, tidy some parts up and perhaps make it 1x11 or 2x10, fatish (32/35) tyres, update the wheels eventually and have this as my all road / cx fast(er) dry bike.
Colour undecided but maybe a burnt deep orange? Heavily inspired by this cause I love the mudfoot stinners etc:
