Crane, what's your obsession with disc wheels?! you cream every time I swear... :)

/attachments/11552

Feel unworthy given the above, but it's my first build, and it's shiny, and I like it. Very much in its infancy - 2 weeks and a fair few more parts to gather before it'll be on the road.

He he, frontwheel I had earlyer, and thats a clincher.
Disc is tubular I´m affraid.
Bought it here in sweden, ended up paying about £170.

@SP i'm not sure really i just like how they look and are nice to ride on

saying that ive only ever ridden a DIY disc

you cream every time I swear... :)

have you tried moderating your language? maybe he won't get so excited then

WWWWWWWWWWWWWHHHHHHHHAAAAAAAATTTTTT!!!!!!!!!!!!?

you lucky cunt

how much did that set you back if you dont mind me asking

also am i correct in saying it is a clincher??????

living in london means that i look at that disc and think "lovely" then realise that i can't put a lock through it and start to get the fear.... do you ever leave it alone out of sight?

Got it today so no, not yet.
Will only ride it wheen I´m out just riding, along with friends that can watch it when I go in for smokes etc.
I do have a everyday set of wheels to ;)

built this up over the last weeks. new wheels, bars, saddle etc.

i always swooned towards those classic british audax bikes. then i got my hands on a puch mistral "royal force" which was built in my hometown. it's pretty unique actually bc the paint and parts were never meant to be on that frame. they were put together by corrupt workers who sold them to their friends which is one of many reasons why puch became bancrupt :(

now:

For a Puch that's pretty nice!

oh you should see some of the rare 70ies or 80ies ultimas, bergmaschine and the likes. they're gorgeous.

Giving everyone on this forum your real name in your first post? That's brave!

Nice bike, but the frame doesn't look like a Colnago, the lugs looks off

everything on the frame barely look like a Colnago, I don't know why I see that thought.

your best option is to get those Nitto front rack.

Maybe its just me, but looks like you need to get some kind of fork to get that rack added on

Finished the 'Carbon Monstrosity™ '. After much deliberation I went for the Flickwg seatpost in the end.

I didn't spend too much overall. The frame was pretty much spankin' new off eBay and I transferred the wheels from my other road bike. Cinelli Vai Palm handlebars are bloody comfy BTW.
