are you saying at his peak Jake will be riding a leader?

There were only 2 that didn't fit as well as I'd have liked. To be fair, the Vivalo was a good size, I just didn't realise it at the time as I was used to the slack Leader geo and it felt so 'tracky.' Perfectly willing to admit that the Pan was too small.

B00000000000000000M!!!!!!!!!!

So does that mean you were trolling us with your lies about it fitting?

No, I genuinely thought it would. Then when I built it, I still thought it did fit. Then I got the Dolan and realised how much better the fit was. :-)

run jake, RUN

Na, what is the point. I've admitted I was wrong.

after bitterly whinging that i was trolling you when I kept asking if it was the right size?

oh

ok, but you know whats going to happen..

yes, its memes.

Leader's slack?! the headtube are around 74 degrees, the Dolan have the slacker headtube.

leaders dont have headtubes ed

Urghh finally... just about ready for a 7am start tomorrow.

How did it go?

I never usually like those classic Cannondale decals, but this is especially lovely.

I meant like, lazy angles. The TT slopes like a sportive bike and there was mad tyre to downtube clearance too.

Hi Hugo,

No didn't get resolved. Leaning towards carbon. I think Fox's carbon audax bike is a good example. Or a CAAD_ or vintage steel. Mr Pink's seem to be a bit expensive for my liking. I know its Zona - but still. Very pricey, and not that nicey.

this

Or just get the pedal force, like I suggested

One of those Pedal force CX frames would make a great winter road/audax bike.
Ugly as sin but oh so light, get some fat tyres and mudguards in there and jobs a goodun

The bike was...great. A pleasure. Pleased.

Ed? Is that you?

The e has been removed from made. All makes sense now.

This will be my geared run around town bike. Already got a FC-6500 2x9 crankset. Downtubeshifters will stay of course. Built up so far from spare parts only. It is going to be a budget built.

ah, mammaries
my first fixed gear in 1980 was a Faggin

Jb don't get carbon, you won't ride it

^ fool of a took

i ride my steel road bike more than the carbon one. I think because I trust it more that it wont break

Indeed.

Shitty dark photo of tarck bike with new hipster bars. Waiting for spotter to take some decent photos for me.

Looks good brah. Loving the 'gralters. But, does it not deserve some sexy cranks though?

Looks sweet, PF.
