Seamaster 120 quartz today.

Good choice. Paid rrp for mine but still feel it's been worth it. Been wearing it almost daily for a year now. Solid little watch.

Such a nice model this

Thx. My first experiment with open baffle speakers. Will probably remake it with space for an additional a 12/15" driver for the lower frequencies.

Temporary unfinished baffle to break in the drivers over the weekend. Very weak low end as expected but sounds absolute lovely with vocals already. Fun stuff.

Back at it after 18 years. Crazy how muscle memory works. Almost back to where i left off. Well, except i'm just as stiff as a board myself these days. So much fun though.

Wut. Exclusively used GXP on all my bikes for 10+ years and never had a single issue.

I'm still dailying my trusty polaris.

That is absolutely fabulous. Wow.

Damn son

Needed something to tinker with so picked up a set of these SB Acoustics full range drivers. Very inexpensive and overall praised for what they are. Plan is a simple plywood open baffle design to begin with.

I am starting to come to that realisation. I love steel but something more responsive would be fun.

Thanks! I'm not very fond of the look of the "old" Sram 1x hydraulic rhinoceros levers. That's why i started looking at the E-tap. But that may be an option. Would be fun with some new tech but i've had no issues with mechanical parts yet, and everything is so darn expensive these days.. Maybe if i buy a proper complete road bike some day.

Appreciate it. I think i'll stick to a new lighter wheelset. Perhaps switch to a lighter cassette with smaller range and a medium-derailleur again. I was happy with the 11-36t i previously ran.

Looking to upgrade/roadify and lighten my allrounder a bit but unsure what route to take.
I just wish it to feel a bit snappier. I mostly ride on tarmac and occasionally some connecting gravel roads. Most of the time on 32-35mm slicks.

Plan is at so far a set of lighter carbon wheels (~1500g). But also tempted in going for some new hydraulic brakes. But that means new levers as well. That brings new issues with derailleur compability. And then there's 12s..

Would there be a big weight gain going for a new entry-level electric & hydraulic groupset over my current mechanical Sram Rival/Force one? I haven't really changed anything for 6 years and haven't kept up with the latest tech.

Can you please source me some OG 26mm Spotter bars dear sir. You surely have a stash still

V nice collection. That dark MX-Leader is hoottt.

Had this Merckx 10 years ago and really regretted selling the frame.
But found a new one locally yesterday. Neo-retro project for later this summer/autumn.

What a bargain

Thanks. No, actually just regular brush-on.

Winter/spring footie project finished. Just needed something to tinker with honestly and will probably move all the parts over to my other, more sensible, project later this fall since this frame is on the small side for me. But fun build. Haven't put together something like this in forever and the lack of parts was a nice change from all the road/gravel stuff in recent years. Full circle etc.

Will start prepping this frame for the same treatment. Still got some stripping and sanding to do.

Didn't require much at all. About half a 250ml can for two layers.
