a ‘commitment to utility’

Here I will endeavour but likely not document either of these objectives.
But both could be a possibility.

So did you go for orange or green? Or were both a possibility?

Faran with a power meter... :-/

This is my type of utility

Are there any 4 bolt 110bcd sub compact rings other than absolute black?

Praxis do a 48/32 set I think but it’s got some wierd cut out on the bolt flange.

I think it’s almost impossible to do round 110bcd rings with <34 teeth.

Power meter on a Faran is a strong statement, is this going to be a drippy build?

I think it’s almost impossible to do round 110bcd rings with <34 teeth.

TA do a 33 tooth one but any smaller than that and the bolt holes are too close to the teeth. (And I just noticed it's shimano-specific 4-bolt 110. Sorry)

Could only find 5 bolt. TA do one but didn't look great. AB it is.

Do I see you have a 54T? Interest in your saddle height and saddle to bar numbers. I am between sizes compared to my existing frame.

Yes 54t. I’ll measure it tomorrow if you like, I have been running with a 10mm spacer and -6 stem, I’m 5’10. Are you ok London? You’re welcome to a go when I’m back in a couple weeks.

Thanks will pm you.

Frame has arrived.

Nice!

In 700s it's looking fast, and my full frame bag fits from the old frame.
Now to clean up and fit the bits from the old bike.

That must be the fastest (looking) Farran in existence.

What are those wheels, 60mm? I’ve wondered what a Faran would look like with something like those. That green is so good too and the copper logos 👌

Just catching up here but surely a triple has to be on the cards rather than a sub-optimal compact set up?
