I will never understand the problem with putting solid, easy to use pedals on an otherwise top-end bike. Similarly, you might want to run slightly fatter tyres if you knew you'd be riding in certain conditions.
It's nice but it's got race gearing, race wheels and pedals for commuting. Bike pedals are important. Bike p0rn is imp0rtant!

I would get black chairs and skip the marble countertop but the rest is in my top5 rooms in this thread
dark brown chairs, and that dooor in the back maybe pickled..

Needs pedals.

And maybe a less corpulent saddle.

And definately better photographing.

Yes. Also, if you're a Shimano or Campag victim, you might not have realised that SRAM RDs don't go out of adjustment every time the cloud cover changes,
Sr 11 speed has been pretty much set and go for me. Touched it a few of times in a year maybe

Rad vig though. SR is beautiful but just eye wateringly expensive.

I adjusted my Red/Force mix a couple of weeks ago. First time since I built the bike in 2009.

Hipster as hell but actually really nice. If they sold them in that colour scheme I'd buy one.

Why not take the front mech across the TT on that Hunter also?

Because that would require either a top-pull FD or a pulley on the back of the seat tube to reverse the cable pull. Some people do one or other of these things, but they add problems which are roughly of the same magnitude as the downtube cable routing, so it's not clear that there is a "best" solution if you want to use full SRAM. There is a top pull Shimano FD-CX70, but I'm not sure whether current Shimano FDs work with other people's levers.

I think the CX70 is a goer - there are folks who've swapped the disappointing SRAM red FD for Its DA equivalent. IIRC :)
Or just run a single ring.

Ah, ok. Just remember old school Yeti? With top down. Funnily enough this question went unanswered in HHSB.

I think FD-7800 would be OK on SRAM bikes (I had FD-5600 on one of mine), but didn't Shimano change the pull ratio on 7900/6700/5700 when the cables went under the tape? In which case, I'd expect CX50/CX70 to be designed to match that generation of STIs

And then use the 12-36 MTB cassette to get the low gears, which will also match up better to the MTB Type 2 RD, making everything better.

Im getting top tube rd and brake routing and downtube fd as pulleys seem meh and i wanna use the red yaw front

Are these not de rigueur in mtb now?

A Cinelli with Campagnolo...without Cinelli stem & bars and Campagnolo seatpost is a definite fail.
Get a type ii version and say hello to silent running, too.
