Paul playing card chainrings are always anti.

^ was just about to say the same.

Everything Paul make (apart from that lever) is always anti.

ftfy

but oh my isn't that little lever lovely.

Bollocks.

Thumbies are fecking genius.

Which lever now? The brake lever is mighty uncomfortable

Their drop outs look fine too

I quite like the light mount.

Crazy prices for stuff that can easily be replicated for less than half the price. I mean, £13 for that ^? The bolt probably cost them 0.5p and the mount could be made in less than 5min on a lathe. They make some nice parts but it's all overpriced imo, I don't see a reason for the price apart from brand tax.

Paul components = hipster tat.

I could'nt find a better solution than the thumbie. Its a great product.

I would'nt bother with much of the rest. But its not all tat.

Massive generalisation, obv. ;)

TBH. Having just loked into, and ordered, some Sram thumbies. I thought 'no way Paul stuff rocks'.

But when I just checked, the tat index was pretty bloody high.

As C.B. says, the dropouts look nice but I reckon they're a recipe for seizing (I'm sure I've heard of this happening). And I don't like how cantilevered they make the rear end look.

Some of the rest of it you think 'ok, looks quite nice' but then the price is jokes. And the cranks are just horrid.

The Thumbies do look neat though.

loads of decent paul stuff, but just jokes price!
on that note, some nice bikes using paul:

Why is it in a sauna?
