  Life is unfair.
  Didn't had the chance to meet Maj, but I loved reading her thread and following her builds. She will be missed.

  Sorry I'm missed the notification.
  Mine came out a bit off too, I had to slowly work them to have them fit.

  I think Berthoud might have some QC problems at the moment, because the shape was ever slightly different on the last installs I did.

  So yeah, the install is a bit of a faff - having to drill extra holes two. But generally, the end result is worth it.
  Seing the Stayer with the proper install, it was worth the extra work! 👍

  Have you investigated Wheeltop?
  (chinese electronic derailleur for 7 to 13 speed). It would be a more affordable option. Not sure if the cage length would be a problem with small wheels however.

  If you can't afford a second Hulsroy, there's always Earlyrider

  I did a few big pass descents, no shimmy at all.
  The bike actually feels quite planted. I think we got the geometry spot on, with a low bottom bracket and a good front/rear weight distribution.

  The frame actually weighs a bit more that the number @Hulsroy had - I think 1400g were for tubes only. Still, we're at a very respectable 1815g finished with a heavy, multiple-coats powdercoating. (and 930g for the painted fork).

  re Starfish Allroad - you guys are hard on this one. Maybe the pics don't do it justice ; looks nicer IRL. Linseed paint, brass touches and the hand-painted logo give it that very handmade/quirky look.
  Not for everyone I guess, but I like, ; I think of it as a Crust with nordic/artisanal vibes.
