And just like that, I no longer want a Moots

And just like that

lol

I also have a hard time to understand and accepts these mountain bikes with drop bars but on the other side we can't blaim MOOTS if the market is demanding this...MOOTS will always have my respect! :-)

Is that the new TI Bootzipper?

Does Barbra Streisand ride a Moots?

I think that’s Sarah Jessica Parker.

Just seen this on the Pinkbike feed of all places. Bossi Strada SS.

Builds from £6000.

I like it.

Definitely aluminium, the titanium PowerBook was at least two generations older.

I really like the look of this one. Think the curved fork looks the part on that frame as well. You can likely cut down the headtube quite a bit if its not the stand over that makes it to "tall".

Update photo from my Merlin Extralight...now with Vision TRIMAX 35 KB wheelset

My Enigma Esprit. Frame off here a while back, chorus/Athena groupset.

Have since switched to tanwalls and a Thomson stem.

I hope you got yourself a 17 degree stem! 😎

Lovely bike

I did indeed 😎

Mid build on my 1997 litespeed classic polished frame. Mix of super record and chorus with neutron ultra wheels and a particularly nice Mizuno fork I picked up from the bay a couple of weeks ago. Will share more photos when she’s done. And I know the grass needs cutting!!

Ooh memories of a Litespeed I borrowed off an ex US serviceman in Okinawa. He told me he had an old bike I could use for the week and produced this lovely thing. First Ti I rode.

Very nice. Love the frame pump too. Need to get one sorted for mine.

(Wondering what spindle length you need to get a 57mm chainline with Phil track cranks.)

Tom offered free shot peening to old customers so I've got the bike refinished.

Well I’ve had my Kish for just on 6 months and have ridden getting on for 4,000km on it and I think it’ll stay now. So, some things need to get sorted now. It’s my if the weather doesn’t look great ride and as I live in the asrehole end of nowhere it’s fair to say they’ve been hard kms.
Anyway there things I have to do and things I want to do.
Want;
Black seat collar,
Black stem mounted cable holder,
Black CK headset,
C15 saddle,
Camb bar tape,

Need;
Refinish the forks,
Freewheel ( WI ?),
Chain,
BB,
Cranks.

I HATE! the 105 cranks on it now, but what to replace them with? I’m at a loss. I think it needs to be square taper, but other than that?¿?

Currently watching a frame being sold on Ebay as Titanium. Is there a way of knowing that this is actually ti from the welds, without actually seeing it?

Looks pretty Ti to me
