Polo Bikes

You've not tried dual brake >>>>>>>>>

Tried, but not intensively used.

You can massively outbrake someone FBO if you have a properly set up dual brake.

That's a weight distribution issue, not a brake setup issue.

Three PoloScobles™ in the same room?

boooooooring. Anyway, polo bikes

How do you feel about that lever?

VeloLucuma from Peru, mine, just build up.
Thanks for all the help I received in this Thread.

Derailleur stays for now.

My new polo bike, built for me by the awesome Ryan of Oak Cycles.

Bang tidy.

Reet nice! I really like the slight gourgeous baby blueness of it. Got a duplex lever on there?

Nice, Tory Blue

WTF is up with the wheel lacing. Hard acceleration wind-up fail. Also, did you run out of spokes?

Whilst you're out buying more spokes, you may as well pop in to Leyland SDM and get a new hacksaw too for that steerer.

Ruthless as always, Gabes.

I aim to please offend.

ha, oh Gabes trust you...

I will cut the steerer when I am sure exactly where I want my stem

The wheels were Jonos old ones and he laced the front radial. Consequently it has lost a shitload of spokes. Its gonna get a rebuild soon with a 2/3 cross

What's up with the rear wheel, look radial too.

3x minimum, unless you're a roadie.

2 cross, Jono again. They are 48 hole 26' wheels so while I agree with you 3 cross is optimum, 2 cross isnt too bad

My 48h are 4 cross! Over Over Under Over, PITA.

The tory blue comment was the best of the bunch.

Lovely bike, btw. And ignore Gabes. He doesn't realize that people play polo on carbon hover bikes with mono-spokes now. Trends move fast.

Indeed, and life in the sticks moves even slower than Gabes on a polo court so we cant expect him to keep up
