Dosnoventa Detroit 1 (special, with tight geometry)

i get the seatpost but why lose the syntace and for the love of god, why a spok?!
ah well, if trispok...

Damn, really good! ^agree with Rodolfo, why a spok? You'll regret this for sure.. Bike looks great as is.

Seatpost came with frame. I'm think I need 17 degree stem. Seatpost needs to be carbon, but I need to sell parts that came with frame before buying something new.
I don't know if I really want spok, only if it's mavic or corima, but what are the chances?

What stem should I go for? 110mm with 6 or 17degrees.

One that fits you?

I mean brand. 3t, zipp?

What size is the syntace stem?

110mm

If you want to get rid of the Syntace, let me know

Carbon seatpost and Romin Expert.
But maybe this isn't really for me as I treat it like a princess
It's beautiful but may not be for me, waiting for next season
to see.

needs black crank/chainring

i think it compliments the frame nicely, and master, beautiful bikes are there to be ridden, it's good (if a bit weird ;) ) that you treat it like a princess, maintain it well and it'll keep it's beauty

It will get ridden when the weather is right but it bothers me that treating it like that makes me like those rich kids with their shiny Dosnoventa's. (no offence)

why only when the weather is right?

The weather will be right when temperature will be below zero and it won't be wet but will be icey. :)

Looks great man, I think the silver cranks suit it. I don't blame you not using it in the bad weather, I haven't used my nice bike for a couple of months.

this, i forgot where you're from bad weather really makes a bike unrideable, not a few leaves falling and getting rained on, if you stop taking it out when that happens, then worry, until then you're not a rich kid with a shiny dosnoventa whoe doesn't ride it (unless you are)

I don't say I'm poor but I saved my own money for this and I'm not an adult yet but this was only dosnoventa I will ever have because no matter how much money I will ever have I wouldn't want to deal with this customer service again. And I'm from Latvia, currently it's below zero at night and at above on day. I will ride my beater atlest next 2 weeks until school ends, but I need some bonding with Dosnoventa so I may just put the Raceblades on and go for some 60km rides.

the way i see it you got a bargain with this frame, use it and enjoy it, take a look at one of the mash guys' mash, he used it and traveled with it till it was used and abused and looked like a real rat, but clean it up and respray and it would look good as new, i say use and abuse it, it's a really nice frame with top quality tubing but it should be used

the first scratch is the hardest.
with time you will grow to appreciate the worn in look and treat it like an extension of your body.

Black cranks/ring would look sick, chrome and black all the way! true words from the above posts, the first always hurts the most then it becomes easier to live with.

...until that inevitable wear appears on the crank arm and then it looks all literally sick.

The joy!
