That looks very neat indeed. There are cheap chinese ti post on ebay Can‘t comment on the quality tho. I found a cheap van nicolas on marktplaats for 50€ a couple years ago. Maybe post a wanted ad on here? 3ttt pro chrome stems are good budget alternative for a reasonable match with a ti post.

I love my sim works stem too much to change it. Probably stick with black 😎

I dont think titanium will look good with the already grey frame. The Simworks stem looks great imo

the metal zefal hpx are good if you can find one.
apparently not in production any more though so there's not a lot of stock around.the Argos is a real beauty. #chefskiss

Think i agree, black looks really good but i do like mismatching stem and seatpost (did someone call it Panda?) these days.
Bike looks mega Justin. Doubt it's much cheaper but if you're not in a rush see what Blue Lug are asking for the SimWorks seatpost in Yen as i may be passing through in the next month (Japan and Bath!).

Hey Jono,
Edit: 14,300 JYN about £75 for the 300mm.
Just looked closer at the site and I’m now yearning after t shirts and stickers too! If we could work something out that’d be great but no pressure.
Think I’ll stick with black for the seat post.
Japan is a dream destination for our family… -

Currently in Copenhagen, upright bikes and baskets/racks everywhere. An amazing city to ride a bike in

Got some all black panaracers 700 x 28 and could probably get 700 x 30 to fit.
Waiting on a sim works cage off the forum and then hopefully a sim works seat post to finish it off at some point

Great looking bike.
Did you decide on a pump? As mentioned upthread, the Topeak Master Blaster is excellent and would colour match the frame perfectly.
Good point well made 🤩 ti would look amazing such as a moots as it would blend nicely with the frame too.
Seen a nice steve Potts on eBay but start price is £179.99😢
