Disc brakes are dead

Brakes do squeak but I can concur it doesn’t ride as heavy as it feels when you pick it up. I like this bike and enjoyed the concept. Shame it took so long and the thread grew tedious.

How underwhelming. Sorry Amey. Your black carbon thing is nice though.

no my moots is nice

trek is also alright but I am selling that .. thinking of getting disc canyon as the road bike

TBH I think I'd like DBAD much more if it wasn't for the colour... Aside from that a very impractical route to a (mostly) practical bike! Just wait till you're descending at full gas and suddenly become paranoid about not being able to remember when the last time you checked the S+S couplings was ;)

Needs disc brakes.

I will donate £50 to charity if @Velocio will shut this thread forever.

Needs a #DBAD group ride now

That’s what tonight’s forum maintenance is all about.

Well done amey. Looks nice, congratulations.
Disc Brakes Are finally Dead!

This thread should be humanely destroyed in a controlled explosion.

Nice bike. I like the color. DBAD

It's made the front page @amey !

They laughed at Steve Jobs, They laughed at Clive Sinclair, and in turn they also laughed at amey.
Who's laughing now?

Great words. I love how @Amey is not even responding to these pieces of fan art anymore, but faithfully keeps adding them to the opening post. We're gathering enough material for a hard cover book about this story. The journey isn't over yet.

I think post #2 on this thread nails it.

hard cover book about this story

Handsomely bound, two-volume package with the forum book?

apologies been busy, I do like to keep the talent happy, lets do a champagne and caviar opening.

Nice bike. Was expecting better bokeh I have to say :)

this is great, could you replace 'UX designer' with 'artist' ?

Is it me or is there’s a small washer between the pads and the conical washer?

Needs hand built 32h silver spoke wheelset, but otherwise lovely :)

That might happen as I NEED a dynamo .. I am thinking Exal LX17.

You mean 'troll-artist'?
