The drop on the -17 is bigger than the -6/7, so you'll likely to go from very upright to neck paining low.

Yup, hence the addition of spacers. It's a project which requires some forethought, as my flexibility will improve over the next year or so with stretching and training to a point where I can have a decent long and low fit

I can see at least 5 things why I'd rather ride a Foffa

List plz

aren't the stock forks on a MASH 35mm rake?

think someone on here has a MASH with some wingpistas that looks pretty good just can't remember where the pic is

What bars are these?

awesome build, paintjob is super rad

Wing TTs (Wing Pista with a hole?), just checked rake = 35mm, hope that helps!

I think the Wing Pista's shown on the Dolan site are either a different model, or the same model with the dropouts moved back along the bottom of the 'wing'. I think that could make up the 5mm difference, no? Are yours full carbon bar the dropouts?

Thanks for checking Colin, very kind of you!

Definitely different model, not surprising as mine are quite old - like me......

I have some Oval T900s, undrilled and 35mm rake that I would let go:

both full carbon:

23mm rake, only up to 23c tyres

38mm rake, with brake hole

For that money, if I was happy mucking about the geo I would just buy Enve forks.

Go for Enve, you won't regret it.

"Columbus don't do a 30mm rake fork..."

I realise that, but they do do a 35mm rake fork, in fact the very fork used on MASH Bolt/Histogram.

No way to edit your own messages? Anyway:

That low is brilliant!

I believe it's 30mm, actually. Also, if you mean the Columbus Tusk Straight then I think that's 40mm rake.

Pretty sure the stock mash fork is 35mm rake, I was chatting with a mate and he replaced his mash fork with the stock 35mm because he didn't want to fuck with the geo.

It's 35mm on the new Histogram, according to the Cinelli website. If it's 35 mm then fuck it, what's 5mm? Might get the 2.0s

Instapix of my mielec now

Here is my budget spare TT bits in progress hip hop slave bike.

It may only make it as far as my local but have been "inspired" by this thread.

Terrible photo, terrible bike but will make a better effort when finished

Girl's Vig, my Bolt and my Histogram (Histogram now dead) all came with a (Columbus???) 35mm rake fork. I certainly couldn't tell them apart if it wasn't for the paint job.
