Functional bikes. Not Porn not Anti

Edited. Photobucket did work before didn't it?

3 x 1 is great. It's like having a AW you can repair on a tour. I tried to do the reverse with a 1 x 3 but had trouble getting the range I wanted.
Did a frankenstein build just like this one but shitty/ratty with old/bin bits and it had all the gears I needed

@Chak more info here: http://www.cycleexif.com/f-moser-motard

Would love to build something similar in the future.

Seems a bit odd to me, if you're gonna do gears why not get 9/10/11 etc rather than go to the effort of putting gears but only having 3

Main reason I can think of is it would allow you to build a dishless rear wheel for loaded touring? And I suppose it's probably lighter than an AM.

built rack for friends cyclo, to have platform for daily usage and possibility to put panniers sometimes. maybe someone knows are there front racks for cantilever and axle mounts? then there is no center brake hole and no eyelets ? would be interesting to check mount solutions

Nitto Randonneurs, and reservoir in the top compartment of the framebag.

Mr Thorn, could do with a size smaller, but they never come up :/

Hence the rather ugly setup...

Dear owners of functional bikes,

Has anyone got a spare velcro strap for holding a frame pump? Currently using a yellow one and its really irritating me

I think I have a pale pink one

Haha seems a side step rather than upgrade. Hoping for black

Rapha?

Yes, the rare collab, highly limited editions.

I have some black velcro. The stuff with hooks and loops on both sides. PM me if you want, might be able to meet tomorrow.

Was going to put this in anti, but it grew on me.

Zing!

I think I probably do, but I'm working away from home till Saturday so can't check. Will let you know when I find out.

No mudguards or racks.. Sensible gearing aside that's more gravel bike territory that.

Edit.
It doesn't even have eyelets..
