bdhu

Just outed yourself as a gcn viewer

I’m a sadist.

This was ‘How to ride faster on the flats’. An absolute gem of the genre.

how low that thread has fallen 🫡

?

those two bikes were in hhsrb, I thought you got them from there

They are from there yes. I see what you are saying now ;)

They are lovely frames both of them. But probably not HHSRB and they definitely both have issues with the the bars/hoods when looking at the overall price tags. I expect more from the brand

Similar for me when I do see Richard Sachs bikes with little bit to horrible bdhu - you would think here the world must be in every way perfect.

Can I get a bdhu check on this before I tape it?

Bars down, hoods up.
Bottom of bars parallel with top tube as a starting point, then fettle a little as required.

Cheers.

Ended up at this. I’m happy with it now.

More!

That's great. Have you got any plans to change it? The fun/unusual stem is on brand but the rest, although great, probably isn't!

I hate the wheels but the hubs seem alright so I’ll probably rebuild them onto different rims. Might make a stem for it.

Maybe I’ll stick downtube shifters on and do some mad handlebars but want to keep it functional.

It needs a properly fitting headset (headtube is 30.2, headset is 30.0), I’ll be getting shot of the plastic bottle cages and the gommy big pedals are going too (I’ll fit Atacs). On the lookout for a silver crankset too.

...and also angle the bars down, right?

... right?
