  • Not really that I know of but some old steel mtg forks would probably be perfect. ^^

    If you wanted to use a brake you'd probably need new mount brazed on though.

    that will become temporary solution if I don't find something before end of the may, but as I have that much time I'm wondering maybe there are 1inch trick forks or old school MTB's had straight ones at some point?
    As older steamrollers had 1inch and I know where I could find them that's an option too

  • 1 inch touring or 27" road forks?

  • Pendle needs...

    Pendle need setting up with drops and levers and to be ridden like a road bike.

    Loving the brooklyn though. I'd put 28mm+ rubber on though.

  • It's on the cards eventually as it is taking over from the seta.

    Those tyres on the brooklyn are 28c, it usually has 38's but I fancied something smaller and nicer to fit under mudguards for longer winter winter rides and commutes.

  • Both lovely bikes. Both 'keepers'.

  • Pendle need setting up with drops and levers and to be ridden like a road bike.

    no

  • Normally I would agree with miro, but in this instance, wouldn't be idea.

    Better off with drop and carbon fork on the Brooklyn rather.

  • Risers on bikes intended to be ridden hard on the road? GTFO.*

    • all other opinions are perfectly valid.
  • That's likely as well, I'm getting the superted forks for it so might add disc tabs or v brake posts afterwards.

  • TriRig's Cervelo P3 Top Tube Cable Mod - YouTube

    Is this a really bad idea? Part of me is very tempted but another part of me is obscenely precious about my P2.

  • Just finished this up:






    New wheel set, crankset, seatpost and saddle..

  • ^ Love this.

  • ^^^^ Wow that is amazing.. I might do it to my PX Stealth...

  • It just doesn't seem like a very good idea to drill carbon...

  • It just doesn't seem like a very good idea to drill carbon...

    Dont put di2 on a cervelo s2 then

  • I don't plan to :)

  • Hell of a lot easier than metal.

  • Got some njs 125 drop bars for giggle helps even out the colour. So don't think I will get a black seat post now. Just need some black strong v grips now

  • Another how to here, although I wonder if I can pay the lbs to drill it for me, I'm not sure I would cope.

    I'm relieved to see Danstuff's experiences too, although I'm still nervous about it.

    Terrible idea. Get a new P3 instead. You know you want to.

    amazing.

    So sad for the difference in height profile (2mm), 38mm rear 40 front, the human eye is able to distinguish a difference of 1mm less than 3m away.

    IMHO, a profile of 43mm would was preferable to the rear.

    And I'm not even talking about the riser, it must be really tiring, a "wide" bull horn offer an almost identical position to this riser plus a "mains sur les cocottes" position.

    pozidrivel

  • TM careful because I will soon leave LFGSS And Posidriv always need a enemy.
    He is a impeccable disident that fight to avenge the earth against the wicked.
    I tried to help him in the past but it did not do as it just turned him into a sour monster.

    God bless you All.

    I'll give you 50 quid for the current one.

  • Thanks slimjim and TM! ;)

    I don't think it's sad, it's not like I have OCD or something.. I found this rim on sale, closest best I could get at the moment and went for it.

    The idea was to get a Bora 700c wheel, and lace it to a track hub, but 16 spokes on a brakeless might not have done it.. what do you guys think?

    ps: and I already tried a bullhorn on this (the cinelli I bought from you), position too low for the streets, hence the riser.. ;)
