  • I don't think I like any of that apart from the DSC forks.

  • Something I can't quite place but I really like it, would change a few things but I like the idea.

  • It's got all the trademarks, but lacks any spark.

  • Also, fuck brklss on eggbeaters.

  • Where belt break? Drop out? Good colours. Don't those frame have a durability issue?

  • not sure if anti

  • ^^^^^Drop bars with the same number of riding positions as risers? Great design, that

  • Hactually, I'm close to my PB with new fake disc on 53/15 not even dropping it like.

    Def getting some TT bars innit.

    Not sure it counts with a 3 speed! Ha ha.

  • Here's a non instashot

    Really loving these wheels .. also just realised that everything bar the chain and pedals is from forumengers

    If you have to put more arrow to show which post you're referring to, it might be worth quoting it as it brought me to a kid instead;

  • Slightly OT maybe but seems like the place where I'll get the answer I need...

    Obviously installing brklz is the appropriate hardware for stopping your salve (second only to not stopping at all) BUT I'd like to know if there are any officially sanctioned HHSB calipers/levers... if one were to require a front brake on one's sweet fixeh, waht would be acceptable to accompany Omnomnoms/Spok/Arione etc?

    I have a sneaking suspicion that I may already know the answer but I am asking in all seriousness.

  • Black sram?

  • Ed, I hope that you never to learn tell the difference between when you're funny on purpose and when you're funny by accident.

    Cheers Apollo... I will buy.
    Thanks.

  • ^^^repped

  • Hip Hop Slave Breakz

  • Black sram?

    Yup, rival instead of apex thgough

  • Not sure I can see much difference between Ed's troll post and the Rival.

    A couple of options that spring to mind include ordinata's concealed brake, campagnolo cobalto, shimano ax, those wierdy weinmann delta's, campag deltas, or any of the modern techy-TT jobs like TMs post above)

  • Not sure it counts with a 3 speed! Ha ha.

    As opposed to a road bike / TT rig? :o

    Besides, 65% + 75% only used on the backwater.

  • I've got a Zero Gravity on mine, which I suppose is a bit like brakeless. A TriRig Omega, as seen on one of Tester's bikes, is a decent option too. Basically you just need something boutique and expensive.

    Thought so. This is something I could just find on my own, or even "Something that looks cool" would be something I could manage too.

    I suppose what I really want is something that ticks both those boxes yet works well; a lot of salve standard/common components are novelty, self-indulgent, impractical fuckery but other parts are popular because in terms of performance, they work best. I'm looking for the latter in a brake.

    Cheers for the links guys. I'll get something ordered today. I'll put the build in current projects when it's done.

    Ah. In that case I am the wrong person to ask, because I mostly only have a brake on my bike to justify it also having brake levers. I never use the brake, of course, because I am loath to produce wear on my rims.

  • @ Rik, My aero brake Tektro RT75? off fleabay.

    Basically can get same through Parker branded as Campy...

    http://www.parker-international.co.uk/18390/Campagnolo-TT-U-Brake-Caliper---Front---Lateral-Pull.html

    Obv need to make sure will fit behind fork. I also had to knock up a collar as standoff.

    My pads are cork for rim and yeah, hardly use but def saved me and bike once or twice.

    Not as positive as normal caliper but still.
