A quick update on another front. As mentioned upstream the inbred is getting new wheels with a dynamo hub. Jorrit/munrowheels finished them a few days ago and they are on their way. A sneak peek here.
This means the @Hulsroy Rinko AWOL now fully inherits the previous Arkane wheels.
That, plus a WI crankset, snatched on a sale, now finally makes it a full bike with no shared parts. While on it I also fiddled with the cockpit. The setback seatpost put my weight too far back while the very straight bars were hurting my wrists.
So no setback, more backsweep and longer stem.
All rounded up with a little rack as bag support. I had my first outing with this setup on Sunday and it’s fun and comfortable but very upright. So I might switch the bars for some with zero rise at some point in the future. For now I am off to Dresden to check out Bespoked ✌️
