Finally my pink beauty has arrived.
(Mash/Smooth Welds/IH)
No damage to the box/frame. Paint coverage seems good. I've measured everything and it all seems spot on (precisely 1900g too)
I ordered a Nelson 700c (653g -uncut for those interested) due to the 35mm rake and brake compatability as well as being for an integrated headset. I didn't realise it meant for an oversized crown. Basically the frame has a 45mm outer ⌀ while the fork has a crown ⌀ of 50mm.
Do i succumb to my ocd and replace the fork or just ride the hell out of it anyway?
tl;dr - i'm an idiot, what to do?
