  @kjlem, I always climb with my nose touching the front wheel.

  No, didn't bother. Even when climbing 15% roads the wheel stayed where I wanted it to be.

  The thing is: I don't really trust the Klein. They break too easily. Dhould have put my money in a nice steel Fat Yo Eddy or Serotta T Max. 😏

  I know. I have a couple of really nice vintage mountainbikes (Ritchey Project 20, Scott Pro Racing,...) and the fun is about riding them, not looking at them.

  I´m almost regretting that I bought the Klein. It´s just too mint to ride and I really feel the urge to hammer it offroad.

  That´s a very kind offer, and yes, a box section fork would be ace. But no budget left at the moment. 😱

  Nice Fat...

  11,3 kg. Not bad considering the groupset and Rock Shox Mag 20.

  Thanks. Yeah, Funk are great. I'm only starting to realize how lucky I was to find this one. It was on Markplaats for almost half a year but before I thought it was just some scam or with one or other hidden defect. But it looks like this bike hasn't been on the streets before. No dust where you expect to find some on a used bike. Chain, cogs, brake blocks,... everything looks like new and unused (except the seatpost and saddle).
