Isen workshop: adventures in batch production (or not...)

Unbelievably this set up works with a Carradice, unless you have something strapped to the top of it

ooh, i like that. Supernova light?

I have gone H.A.M. on my front light set up and then done a £20 zero fancy just hanging on the right chainstay job. I'm sure you can do better

Yeah E3, Matt did that for me

You can put it where the ‘Brooks’ logo plate is as well, but it takes some fiddleshimming to get the angle right.

There must also be a way to have it like this, then easily unclip it, pull the excess wire out of the seat post and clip it to the back of your sweet sweet Carrdicé

Parts accumulation is going well.

Stayer are on with building deep crabon wheels. DT240 / SON Delux;
Ultegra hydraulic disc groupset has arrived, so have various bits of Fizik finishing kit and "freezy ice" (eh?) centre lock disc rotors 140/160mm;
B&M IQ-X on on its way from German land, just in time before brexit.

Did anyone need to face the BB shell? It looks like it's fine but then, I don't know what i'm looking for.

Sounds like a classy build that. Fizik kit is nice and the wheels sound posh.

Yes, pushed the boat out a bit on the wheels. That was partly @dancing james fault and partly when I saw a built up wheel at Stayer, I couldn't resist.

What have I done now?

:-)

Is it very perverse to have deep carbon wheels with mudguards?

I hadn't really thought about this until I went to collect the wheels today, and was chatting with the wheel builder about the bike build, and I mentioned mudguards.

And there was a bit of a pause, and then a check that we were talking about the same bike that these hand-built carbon wheels would be going on.

I've done carbon disc wheels with carbon guards.

As well as looking rad, I had a dry arse.

Not at all. Throw up some pics when your done!

@HoKe would put deep carbon wheels on a tractor

Good; that's very good.

I feel suitably reassured.

Photos will be forthcoming.

Don’t love that the front guard stay is curved while back is straight but apart from that 😎

Not very deep. Plus it is very perverse if you use that Enve mudguard.

It's a pretty awful mudguard TBF. Anyone who pays actual money for that fork/mudguard is bonkers.

it's pretty rad for a small bike, the headtube is almost shorter than the hoods ffs !

I seem to have mislaid or lost the derailleur hanger which came with the Isen frame. Anyone know what part I need?

I've also emailed Isen @coldharbour

Mudguards have now been purchased!

The Enve GRD fork has a massive ATC, hence short head tube.
