Deja vu, non?

I filed it yesterday so no 00 >>> chrome

#brakearedeath

The the brake hole was useless, the brake was not even wearing the brake band.

Track mystery forks.

The lug is for road normally

I want a MAX fork.

That's the same crown as the Pendle.

Yeah, I wanted that Pendle but was invested too deep in the Concorde.

What about Don?

Don is lost in action, dispute opened. Also, it wasn't in MAX.

Just ordered ISM Attack saddle. Hope its worth the money...

Ended up with a new daily somehow -

First outing this morning and all fine so i'll finish with the bartape today and put on some nicer wheels soon.

Pretty much like the wheels as they are!

Is that a Rigida Dp18 at the back?

Seems a bit deeper than the dp18 to me.

Edit: my eyes are lying to me. It's a dp 18. Looks much better than my black rimmed ones with silver braking surface.

It is a DP-18 yeah, with a nice titanium finish.

Thrust, with an Easton EC2 seatpost too.. they seem nice, very light, not had problems with it either.

Just ordered some Donhou barrel adjusters for my Look.
Also just received 2 x SS King Iris cages in the post.* They look
beautiful.* It's sometimes the finishing touches that make a bike.
Anyone recommend some nice bottle cage bolts that may match the barrel
adjusters?

Any hardware store should stock brass M5 bolts.

Ah shit man, sorry to hear that!

Ha, yeah I saw that. It's going to be the latest hhsb-trend in a few weeks. ;)

^phwoar!!!!

So I am thinking about new wheels for dosnoventa and favorite option is LF Miche hubs with Black 24h Archetypes. What spokes and nipples should I go for? Want to keep it light, I'm around 70kg

Personally, I wouldn't go for a 24h hole drilling on the Archetype with low flange hubs unless I was really trying to shave weight off the build and/or race.

In terms of stiffness or safety?
I could go for HF rear, but front LF as I don't like HF and radial.

Hey... that's my former track bike!

I knew the guy who bought it was trying to sell it again... Did you buy the frame only?
