stretched? more likely the wheel has been pulled forward. most likely is that the rider likes it at that tension as it will run smoother than an ubertighthipsterchain.

Porn for some... from BLB.
Had a moment contemplating a new wheel build... thought better of it.Hmmm, I noticed them, and am thinking yellow DVs, with yellow spokes and black hubs on a black frame. Bloke I was chatting too reckons it's easy enough to spokes your self with that enamel model paint (if you're the patient sort presumably.

It took me quite a while of camera tinkering to get a good picture (I am no photographer).It was hard to get the orange paint colour anywhere near true. (In the flesh it is as bright as a dynorod van)

i wasn't aware a correctly tensioned chain was hipster.

Tight chain for hopping about, loose chain for riding distance?

its my favourite bike ive seen in current projects. the frame is LOVELY, tight clearances, and a wicked paint job. the saddle and bar tape go very well with the colour's and I really like the 2 tone fade out
but drops would look lovely and i agree you should put some on

are you both talkin' about the grunge saddles? they're 31 notes in tfg.
what's the verdict? they any good or a bit cheapo?
dont be silly, the chain has obviously been stretched. its not as tight as it could be its still slightly slack
