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

Tldr but nice bling bits

I have completed two different 26" projects in the last couple of months and I have two more on the go. I am enjoying the build up to this one. Keep up your wonderful writing and ignore anything @BareNecessities says about rim stickers, shovels and "pond stops" on Badgers rides.

For me it was the other way around!

am about to put a wanted ad up but wondered if anyone here has an 760 rapid rise rear mech or similar. convinced myself this morning that I need one to replace the altus one on the tandem that hit a rock last week. love the ethos of thread. huge amount of effort to justify changing tastes and infatuations - totally relate although suspect that this is laying the ground work for more serious caprices when we are old and suddenly turn tory

Not quite as good, but I have a LX 580 rapid rise rear derailleur, needs jockey wheels.

interested please!!

I bought the final consumable parts last night

Have it all

Now we wait

I’ve had a large star bucks cold brew 😭😭😭 and I’m so excited 😭😭😭 it’s going to be so pretty 😭😭😭 I’m so happy with the part choices 😭😭😭 hulsroys sketches look perfect 😭😭😭 I saw a video of the 1x1 and this is just going to be that but more me 😭😭😭 bikes are beautiful omg 😭😭😭 26” bikes are adorable 😭😭😭 I’m so autistic rn

Pulling myself together

I have to say selling 2 bikes and putting some legwork into eBay, utilising old parts collected through friends and forum goers for good prices over time has saved so much money, I’m well in the green and have some lovely stuff to show for it

Can’t wait

It's like the Lady of the Lake holding forth Excalibur.
Magical!

Then bin the LX shifter and treat yourself

I'm not sure why, but I'm disappointed in you for choosing a masterpiece

large star bucks cold brew

Shit, you just reminded me I got the grrl to grind me coffee for cold brew this morning and forgot to bloody make it!

She didn't. It chose her!

lx stands for luxury! It’s a luxury shifter!! It has a dial on it!!

Needs moar Thudbuster

🥰🥰🥰

@PhilDAS I simply went to the group chat and asked “anyone got a 330mm online silver seatpost” and @spotter had one tucked behind his mountain of which magazines and vitsoe coffee table books

@hippy time to drink 2 coffees to make up for it

Looking at your bars to find out what gear you are in does not comply with the normal high free spirited standards of this thread. Having Shitmano tell you what you are doing seems off...

Dials >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> The sea

Cold brew sorted... and relax

The people are revolting

It makes me feel like I’m in a max power esque 106 with custom rev dials and a badly wired Bose subwoofer when I pair the dialled shifter with a jbl clip 3

9spd Shimano reminds us of a golden age, when road and mtb gearing was still cross-compatible

Need pics of this shifter

It is nice to know that this new Hulsroy frame will fit me when you decide to sell it in a year or so ;)

Also I raise my hand for buying a XTR 9 speed shifter if possible. Please, for the fans.

*puts protective eyewear on

It genuinely looks FINE
