Current Projects chat and miscellany

So pretty, even though it looks kind of "pickled".

so this is almost done.. almost forgot how well this thing rides. more pics in thread

Too bad the skin wall version doesn't come tubeless

Damned it's insane, what about a matching saddle ?

does this look crashed to you? needed to pop into evans to borrow a tool and one of the guys in there reckoned the fork looked bent? I'm by no means certain, but take most of what they say in there with a pinch of salt. fork is on the upgrade list anyway, but just wondering how concerned I should be in the meantime!

like what ?

Nailed it

Doesn't look bent on that picture, could you post a true lateral shot?

It appears for sale complete on french forum few months ago

Did Pignon close? Says coming soon now.

This is it, an alternative to the Cane Creek style, those are found on the recent Genesis singlespeed/hubs gear/bar end shifter bicycle.

Best to check it over first, if the fork is indeed damaged, then the junction between the head tube and down/top tube needed to be checked if there's any obvious ripple.

Nelson's coming back from a short break.

looks like the sram levers still have the best comfort

I find them comfortable, just the rattly left levers is what stopping me (and not in silver).

plus the Promax one come in silver.

you mean the rattly left shifter?
