Kind of want to post this in Anti as 'the most generic dolla dolla salve of 2014':

It has Phil hubs as well.

Bet the owner was annoyed he couldn't fit Chris King headset.

I think im over the Hate for the Cinelli Mash builds.
Im over Thomson too, but its nice looking quality shit so people buy it (im guilty).

Both Thomson and Cinelli are things that are decent and I'd own but would never pay retail for.

I listened to that yesterday!

Should I consider anything other than a Jag for risers?

YesFam!

apparently jag and risers is like Thomson and hhsb generic.

Salsa & Prochrome

nitto pearl, Cinelli 1a or pro chrome (if the frame has fatter tubing)look better in my books so that's what I use.

Jag is too aggressive to look good with risers IMO.

Also any excuse to post my own bike...

Might be racist, but it's funny ;) The purple frame is my old Chinese frame, hence the song. Cheers!

110mm black x2 is 60 euros at crc (i know the mash has x4). I fail to see how this could be unreasonably "dolla dolla" or posh, given how good they are. This thomson hate seems to be kind of hipster-bashing.

you cant beat thomson for price,weight & strength

The clamp strength of the X2 is acting rather shady and aint callin me baby

3t, deda and countless other companies make stems and posts lighter and cheaper than thomson, less boring too but meh. We'll always see identikit.

please link me a 3t seatpost that is lighter than thomson, genuinly intrigued as I wanted to upgrade mine but couldnt find anything without spending over £100

I thought 3T had replaced Thomson as go to finishing kit. Ergo, Thomson is cool again? :-B

I thought Cadence had made Ritchey the hipster choice these days...

^ I know a couple of people who have those stems and apparently the clamp is shite.
