Mine's the best, no contest, nada nada.

When I get it back, it gonna get much more attention, carbon SMP saddle, long 110mm stem, wide wide archetype and better brake cable housing.

Are those <28mm tyres Ed?!

Here's why you should never run cantis on a Gangsta kids;

Nope, it's early day at 23mm front and 25mm rear at stupid PSI too.

you could have used two seatpost clamps, with the lip sanded off the lower one, and route the cable through that.

Little late at 3 years, but if it lower, there's less distance between the straddler and cable hanger.

really enjoying it! it's my daily bike, more comfortable fit than my old frame.

@edscoble what fork is on your old one?

That's great to know!

@Dakin

Easton CX fork with full carbon steerer, the whole bike weight 8.5kg as it is.

damn it thought it might be.
those forks are impossible to find without spending half my monthly wage

Maybe I should have told @Kirth that the fork were second hand from a CX racer...

i still like eds

C-Anti

Those v1 forks make the Gangstas. Looks awesome mate, excellent effort.

Yes Gav, looks class. Very monochrome. Besides the obviously excellent spokecard haha

Consider a mini V instead?

Ran into Mick and this rad one today.

^awesome. The one and only!

The best example of double spok

Wait, I meant only good example.

Guy in my LBS said the mini-v were quite harsh and either on or off. But I've not got experience of them or cantis. Open to suggestions and experimenting with both :)

That spokecard has put up with a lot of abuse and hasn't disintegrated yet, though I'm not sure it'll survive the winter. We'll need to have a 2015 summer gangsta party.
