Bike porn

The hoods are bigger than the fucking saddle!

I like them.

Cant find any highres photos of Jens Voig's german themed trek but it's probably pretty sweet in person.

But still, when all is said and done, a Trek.

My hands are bigger than my scranus

Even when I have a massive discount on them, I'd still not get a Trek.

Yeah but you don't sit on your hands.

Have we had a low res?

awful

Quick glance and I thought that's the same paint job I had on my Peugeot Carbolite back in the day ..

Even if it wasn't a Trek, it's still a no for me.

debatable

Where Anti meets functional?

well, I likes it, looks like it gets ridden

I don't think microshift will ever be porn.

Never in a month of Sundays is that Litespeed porn.

And I don't mind telling you all why:
Halfords Saturday boy, rear mech cable.
Silly gold bits.
White saddle

high spoke tension too.

You can tell that from the photo??

Ed can, he has powers

The wear pattern on the rear would suggest excessive spoke tension if a modern rim oil-canned like that, but on that build it almost certainly just means it has the very thin walled rims which were popular at the time.

rear mech cable.

A powerful argument for using MTB dérailleurs on CX bikes (and probably road bikes too)

i thought baum where hand built ? or am i getting my posts confused ?

Baum are handbuilt in Victoria, Australia.

with 50mm instead of these almost disc wheels - yes please this Passoni will do nicely

^ it shouldn't work, but it really does. The DA crankset looks good too.

Only small point is the cable stops. I wonder if be started with the bottle cages?

Not sure why an obviously tall rider needs 650B, the proportions would look better with 700C and there is a much broader choice of wheels and tyres

I'm with you on that.

I found it because I was curious about looking at 650B road frames with discs. Mainly because I'm not that tall and was wondering whether proportions for a 52-53cm frame would look better with 650B and tubby tyres vs 700c with tyres around 32mm.

I think my TCR looks fairly well balanced as does Smallfurys BMC, but when you start going up to 700cx32mm it gets a bit more unbalanced.
