  • It's the right way up in your pics, elite cages always go that way. Little counter-intuitive but it works!

    Pretty sure that isn't an Elite cage but it is upside down.

  • Struggling to get my head around how to fit cantilever brakes to my pomp frame. Its a new one without the built in hanger. Other reports on the thread say the Surly hanger is too long for small pomp frames, and the seatpost/canti hanger integrated things are the wrong size for the seatpost.

  • Pretty sure that isn't an Elite cage but it is upside down.

    and it is right side up

  • Then Specialized have it upside down in all their product shots?

  • Specialized Rib cage, the right way up:

  • Looking into pomps again,

    Does there exist a fork with canti mounts, 32c clearance but shorter than the pomp fork to bring the geo more track style? (bringing the TT a bit more horizontal)

  • You won't get much shorter than the stock fork, tight clearance to a 32c slick would need a minimum of about 370mm A-C with a skinny cast crown, more like 380mm with the kind of crown you're actually likely to find on that kind of fork, the stock fork is 400mm isn't it? Most CX forks are about 395mm, WoundUp tandem fork with canti bosses for 700c is 387mm but adding a £400 fork to a £100 frame to wreck the steering just for aesthetic reasons seems an odd choice. Bear in mind that lowering the front will not only spoil the nicely balanced trail of the Pompino, it will also drop the BB so you'll turn into corners quickly and then ground your pedals :-)

  • According to On-One, it's 390mm on their Pompino, their Kaffenback oddly listed as 400mm despite looking identical.

  • hmm. good points

    ive tried going through but cant find a definite was the forks on this

    ever correctly ID'd?

  • Thanks ed.

  • Very impressed with On-One/Planet X. Ordered Pomp on Sunday evening and despite it being New Years Day yesterday and New Years Eve on Monday, it is already sitting in the living room waiting for me to get home from work.

  • What you building it up with JB?

  • Tools.

  • ^lols.

    ^^ Fairly budget hack build. Tektro Mini V, Aerotracks, 32C Gator/Hardshell, Deda RHM01 bars, Stronglight 2000's, SRAM S500 levers, Atac's, 3T ARX stem. Basically moving everything from my Leader but I purchased new cranks.

    You're a etc...

    good budget choice, need matching seatpost.

    Not sure if web shop is decent, fork come with mount for mudguard.

    Are you saying that's the fork on the bike above, or recommending a 395mm long Salsa La Cruz fork as an upgrade over the stock Pompino fork?

  • good budget choice, need matching seatpost.

    Probably will get a nicer seat post. My seat post is the one thing that remains from my Langster and it's nasty and heavy....

  • Just a fork with a similar appearance to the one in the photo, crossgrade rather than upgrade.

  • Well, I'd call the stainless dropouts a definite upgrade, and the forward facing dropouts are a bonus compared with Pompetamine fork.

  • One of my favourite pomps

  • Must be pretty fast as well, couldn't even get it in the middle of the photo.

  • These are still my favourites;

    It would be brilliant if On-One release a carbon fibre version of the Pompino.
