Current Projects chat and miscellany

its just finished since yesterday, i am still playing around with the bars for comfort position. i know about the tires, but i dont give a fuck cause i will chew them down anyway,

Sorry, being a little vague, I meant I mightaswell just get some proper TT bars. The thought is a little daunting though having never used them.

Just like with anything new. Make sure you don't tense up in anticipation.

Would STIs with something like the Mavic bullhorns be a bad idea?

It worked fine for ages on TT bikes will be fine for you

Waiting for a response to the most stupid speculative/hopeful email.

"Dear Lance, now that you no longer have any use for your medicine chest..."?

getting there

Utter sexh. Bar end backwards levers? People on here hate them, but for city and porteur bikes I think they work.

Still a current project because now there's a hole in the rear tub I need to deal with. At this rate I don't think I'll ever get around to riding it. Trying to decide between white or black hoods, white currently winning my favour but hmm.

White I reckon.

Looks great, but you've got the wrong saddle on it.

Right for my arse. What would you prefer? Not going back to ariones.

Got to be a Brooks on that build to look right I think

union jack rolls I think

Can someone 'chop it on?

first side on brooks that google gave me. don't think you're on to a winner.

Did you ever see Scott's-then-Ted's Storck?

CF everything, and a black Brooks.

How do you like the zipps? Would they be too deep for daily training?
Or does the bike serve other purposes?

Good luck in your TT

Looks like I chose the right gear, PB* of 58:24 on 100", bloke right in front of me did a 59 on 90", and a bit further up the road somebody did 1:00:13 on 106".

*Not counting my yoof back in the 80s

^^haven't ridden on them yet. not entirely sure what the purpose of the bike is yet, pretty much a wallhanger for now but I'm sure it'll either involve doing things quickly or going slowly and looking like a massive dickhead. but that suits me just fine.
I am concerned that an 808 on the front will be a bit much but won't be sure till I use the thing in anger. Sometime next week, maybe.

jaw on the floor. very jealous

What brakes on the Look?

Sram?

Nice1, 6pt. Moar awesome than i expected it would be.

Black hoods imo, and would be perfect with the Sram Red Black groupset.

Ride it slow with jeans and aviators.

trp r960s. wanted black brakes, ordered everything before sram red black was announced sigh

Ride it slow with jeans and aviators.

this. my LMNH coffee bike :)

Looks great, Tom. Black hoods!

Yes, def. black hoods.
Question: what brand are those wheels?
