Pompino - Winter Beast

yeah, fuck that guy

before he tries to fuck you.

ouch

Thanks Roboto

That headtube/fork junction!

sexy right?

No - but it's hard to make the front ends of pomps look very nice, without more expensive forks.

The stem look a little nutty as well!

The stem look a little nutty as well!

how so?

it's not the prettiest bike but it's comfortable as fuck and it is my beater.

I think I'm gonna flip the stem and chop the steerer a bit.

My rack should be here fairly soon too, last email I had said it was getting shipped this week.

What you can do is get a zero degree Thomson stem, it'll look tidy with a compact geo.

Don't forget the big fuck-off mudflap, in lime green to match the decals perhaps?

I'm gonna try to not spend anymore money on this as I'm far too deep in to my overdraft so will probably stick with this stem for now.

I do really need to get around to sorting out a mudflap, i've just been too busy I havent had chance yet. This weekend maybe.

Why not just flip it and stick some spacers on top, keeps your resale options open...

Yeah could do, I know too many spacers on top will annoy me though.

Also Re: lime green decals. I can never work out if they're yellow or green, it entirely depends on the lighting and what you stand the bike next to.

Excuse the shitty photos, this is almost done. It is currently sat in the lbs getting the steerer chopped.

rattle can it black!

considered it but decided there was no point, it will get chipped and scratched anyway.

I think im going to need a downtube protector too, I keep whacking the rack on my downtube.

Old innertube/bar tape covered in electrical tape. Fits all tube sizes, doesn't cost £30 or whatever those NJS ones do.
