Functional bikes. Not Porn not Anti

One more question on this subject ed: you swapped from the racer to the compass centre-pulls on your oak/talbot, why is that and did you find an improvement?

@MisterMikkel Bloody lovely, the Pan saddle is great for that kind riding position.

Thanks! It rides really well too.
The saddle is actually the cheapo microfiber Velo Orange one, but is is pretty good and very weather resistant!

Ah right you are. Looks very similar, maybe even the same shell. It's not about having fussy leather saddles on your daily bike.

Isn't that soma for sale on pedalroom?

maybe baby. Didn't see. Just like it

Excactly! I chose this one because of function above anything else.

Isn't that soma for sale on pedalroom?

It is:

56cm frame/fork/king headset for sale!!! $400+shipping

So function, finally happy with this. Shifting has been perfect since swapping to the rapidfire.

Anyone on here want to buy a Blackburn Outpost front rack? I keep seeing the Pizza racks and realising that's what I really wanted.

I know the feeling.

Ice Indicator

lol

tha top one is damn heavenly.

What is the spacer you used to fit the front rack?

You convinced me, I leveled my pizzarack today.

Or you just really want a pizza?

Combination of a concave brake spacer and 2 v brake pad spacers. I also drilled the back of the fork out to accept a recessed brake nut.

@M_V 💪🏻

I have some of those bits, will have another play about. My fork also would want to be drilled but I think I'll go with having an unsightly bolt on the back instead.

Always.

Reader's wife

that's just perfect

Thank you. Changed it a bit since that photo but it's still pretty functional.
