I can hear his french accent, it's sweet.

Rad bike, great thread. I think i've just signed up to cycling around Japan this summer and would like to do it fixed so will be following you on IG for inspiration!

French accent is the sexiest

Which is funny, because I just remarked that the bike will be shipped the same day!

Life changing things.

Cool, congratulations!

Ta ! :)

Read the google translate version. It sounds like an interesting read.
Congrats on both the book and the bike!

Thanks! Bike is ready to be shipped at my door, which is kinda weird to imagine such a long and risky process but hey, crossed fingers.
End of the travel in 2 weeks hopefully !

I bought some carbon rims to match it, but I can't find a 24 holes disc dynamo hub. Shutterprecision has one, but I can't find any website where it's available.

Bike will have full mudguards and every part should be black.

Great thread, and enjoyable read. Frame and stem looks great.

This site has a few options

The homepage is a bit basic, and in German only, but it’s a great store and they have super fast delivery. Spokes are cheap too.
