Baum Corretto

Brilliant collection though, did that hardtail ever come along? Or am I imagining things?

Thanks!

Not me, I've had a hardtail but that's many years ago. A fluo Commencal back then.

I vaguely recall something dark green on ti, must be someone (or something) else.

Visually I'd prefer the left as well to be honest. But I've requested the stop on the right for a reason;

Since I'm running a third bottle cage holder underneath, I wasn't certain whether or not the inner cable would interfere / get in contact with the bottle cage holder as it would have to cross the downtube diagonally to exit on the right chainstay. It also avoids any weird angles for the cable to follow at the BB guide plate.

I'd like to think I made the correct assumption as it's hardly clearing the bolts as it is already:

My initial design was an oak green to sage green fade which I changed later into this 3 color fade. But it was never a hardtail, always a gravel bike. :)

At a certain point I'll have to admit defeat and opt for a road disc brake bike too I guess.

I have sent an email to Baum to see if they could still offer a similar paint scheme to my current Corretto, options are there, now just need the funds!

Ti frame pump added and changed saddle.

Converting to a Super Record groupset in the coming weeks, need to find the time.

I'm boring, I wished this had a black stem and seatpost

Pump is a nice touch!

Would the groupset be for sale?

(Asking for a friend 🙄)

I tried it once and it looks horrible. 😅

Thanks, groupset is going to a friend of mine already, sorry.

(and it stands up on it's own!)

Sort of yes ;)

I prefer it with black tyres, too much brown/beige now imo

I've always wondered does the the performance increase adequately to looks?

Of course it does.

It sure does.

Same effect as arriving at the start with freshly shaven legs and a clean bike. ;)
