Nothing has arrived yet. But I have tracking numbers for so many lovely bicycle thingies right now.

Custom Ti fatbike frame.
56mm deep tubular rims.
Weight weenie aero profile spokes.
Cork brake pads.
Veloflex tubs (1 x carbon, 1 x extreme).
Carbon specific tub glue.
Valve extenders, and alu nipples (with a nice hex head).

Now to order a tent to live in, when Mrs Smallfurry kicks me out.

Nice.
I have done a ton of research into this. So PM me if you have any component questions.

I actually pulled a blinder. I smiled and said 'brilliant news, my fatbike frame is on its way', all matter of fact. She looked blank for a second, and decided to bluff me with 'oh at last, that is good news'.

Next time she pulls a 'I've had these shoes in the cupboard for ages'. I owe her a 'oh, its great that you finally have a chance to use them'.

9 zero 7 frame with sliding dropouts 135 mm

carver fat carbon fork

11 spd alfine rear

trying to decide on front hub, possibly i don't need a rear wheel hub for the front as unlikely to do iditarod, but i do have a spare CK ss ISO hub in the parts bin

marge lite rims

so questions are - CK and Thomson for BB, Headset, seat post, stem and bars or Hope?

shimano m785 hydraulics

Fat Larry tyres seem appropriate for a general purpose tyre?

what crankset to go with the alfine? am not sure the alfine cranks are 100mm BB

Sounds a sweet set-up.

PM'd.

arrived last night,


via the Classifieds

Well that didn't take long...

About one and a half weeks all the way from from Serbia, :-)

Seeing PhotoBen tonight for inspection and assembly

Custom Ti fatbike frame.

I would of course do this. But the fat wheels are 170mm rear, lefty front.

Still a 56mm deep rim on a 170mm wide hub would have excellent spoke bracing angles.

Ok so only the bar bag arrived.
Will take better photos in the states.
But amazing stuff from mr BigXTop.
