  • ^ Scoots Taiwanese cousin?

    .

  • Again, girls on bikes!

  • ^^Average at best.

  • Stem needs fipping.

    Lies.

    Typos and lies.

  • From currents...

  • I really like dales, but that one just isn't doing it for me for some reason.

  • except chainring position and wheel stickers, porn.

  • I may be perpetuating the fallacy of mistaking shiny track bikes for HHSB - but Dodici wheels are a sure sign this one's not destined for the boards

  • Just remembered how to do it.

    road stem and alu steerer doesn't look that bad

  • It's a mtb stem.

  • It's a stem.......

  • Isn't it 4 bolt?

    In which case MTB.

  • I think I have seen some x4s with + rise and some with - rise... Does it matter though? I'll be running my x4 either way, + with drops and - with risers/bullhorns....

    I don't know why they don't do the logo so it works either way on the x4 like on the x2

  • It looks like the x4 on that Dodici, and it's setup for maximum stiffness with rise like that.

    And looks ideal to me.

  • It's a stem.......

    No, You're a stem.

  • It's pointed up quite high. I wonder if there is a cut off for stem angle from road > MTB?

  • If the steerer had been cut longer a road stem could have been used. The Elite and x4 mtb stems are stiffer than the x2 though, that's why chosen by most track riders.

    I think there have been a few instances of the x2 faceplate cracking too.

  • No, You're a stem.

    That was awful......

  • but true.......

  • I don't know why they don't do the logo so it works either way on the x4 like on the x2

    Looks badass to have a flipped logo, antichrist vibes.

  • Isn't it 4 bolt?

    In which case MTB.

    x2's have been known to sheer on the track during standing starts*. Not saying the bike is necessarily used on the track but the stem is deff not a MTB only stem.

    *source: Pistoffski told me

  • Very glad I didn't go for the X2 on my current project, especially as I'm about 18stone!

  • I have a x4 and it's nice. Though I like the normal elite more cause of it's 'integrated' clamp.

  • Have a X4 on my other bike and that I trust.

    But the X2 seemed a little flexy, so went for a Ritchey instead.
