Functional bikes. Not Porn not Anti

I'm located in Utrecht, what about you? I can't make any promises on my welding though..

@LeMesjeu Thanks! I was a bit scared in the first few weeks. But after about 1000km of MTB trails I feel pretty confident. And the brakes are just so good!

We should do a DutchLufgus meeting sometime

Only if @Jaap isn't coming.

heuj!

haha

The only real need is a hanger eyelet on the bottom of my dropout but it must be done right and align perfect.

I'm near you in Houten btw.

Cool! A derailleur hanger shouldn't be too difficult actually.

My TIG welder is at my parents place in Vianen, so Houten is perfect. I'll PM you after my Wednesday ride.

Hey functional folk.
I'm selling a pair of MKS Lambda pedals. Thought someone here might want them.

They're super functional. Grant Peterson designed. Japanese made. Prolly endorsed. What's not to like.

Al deze Utrechtse boys!

hot !!!

Are the bars made from beef jerky?

Yes. Do keep up.

Is 2 NW chain rings without a mech a thing now?

I think I like this idea.

Then.. Why not add the derailleur!?

prolly wrote this back when his Clockwork bike was featured

"The throwback version of the narrow wide chaingrings is just a “narrow narrow” ring. An outer “bash guard” ring pressed up against an inner ring with a spare “rabbit” personal massager holding it in place."

This bike blew my mind, and still does..

Gear change artisans. Taking the time to hand craft each front shift.

Hold on, so it's a single rather than a manual double?

I still think a double NW is an interesting idea.

@M_V do I have a problem?

So many reasons, none of them especially valid but somewhat arguable @Jaap

@M_V do I have a problem?

emmm...I don't think so?

Broke my front mech once in the beginning of a loaded touring trip. Had to shift +-500km with my heel before finding a new one. You'll get used to it.
