Current Projects chat and miscellany

Heh "verdorie" none on there atm.

But a friend of mine may wrangle a favour of a framebuilder...if that falls through saved search set on ebay :D

Think I've seen a few around here. I'll see if I can find some linkz

I do need 28 mm rake like the current fork, just to be a pest... :/

The HT angle is that steep that more rake means less trail means "exciting times" :)

This one?

Today I started my vacation, so I built up a "Touring" bike with things I had on the shelves.

The idea is a bit shorter touring rides with tents and fishing rod, and of course a box of beer :)

better photos tomorrow!

Great shelves!

This is awesome, like always Bankiren !

put it in njs of lfgss! we have a weird njs rack thing going on there. great bike again, indeed as always..

thanks :)

That's a great bike! I advise you to use a front brake when you are touring. Brakeless with luggage is not that great, trust me I tried.

but at least you have a bumper!

Nice, I like your bikes man

This is going well in it's current setup.

I know.

@miro_o Looks really good, and it looks like a bike built for riding. Are they the arc 31 wheels?

Looks lovely! What's the front/rando bag on this? Looks to be purely attached to the bars (no rack?) - does it feel stable enough? Looking for something for an imminent LEJOG trip...

Nice bike! Don't really like the aesthetics of silver 105 cranks though.

Building up my old Peugeot to sell on. Black Supercorsa or White Turbo? I'm thinking Turbo...

it's an Ortlieb Ultimate - there's so many models but I'm fairly sure it was this one, the L size.

I've nothing to compare it to but I've been happy with it. The mount is secure, the bag is roomy - I carried a DSLR and two lenses in it for a few hundred km.

^^ white looks good, but that may mean white bartape to match...the most impractical of all ;)

Very true... Considering bright coloured Benotto tape?

Cheers. Yes they are. No problems with them and they're riding nicely. I like the perfect tyre>rim transition with the 23mm veloflex #marginalgains

I went with silver because it sort-of matches and is a bit different. And I always rub a silver mark in black cranks anyway...

Nice. Wonder If I should have ordered those, not the pave 28's hmmm.

Probably built by the same hands. These are wider and lighter – all good so long as they stay together.
