can't wrap my mind around this -
somec has such great attention to detail
but at the same time no rear bridge reinforcement
WTF?

Bridge reinforcements are pure cosmetical.
They tend to crack in the neck/edges.
It's better not to use them, if you care about durability.
If you prefer looks over quality, then use reinforcement plates and solder properly.

3ttt also had quill stems with a faceplate

And so did Mavic

i hear you –
that somec is not concerned with cosmetics/aesthetics.
it's all about function and durability
right?

Lovely!

bought the wheels with those (unused) tires, rode them one season at the velodrome,
meanwhile the bike is sold to an assembler

Master Krono is a re?

Must remember to add more tilt shift, signage and pigeons.
