I remember that I had this after I had the Time Straight Fork:

https://www.wiggle.fr/fourche-tifosi-carbone-route-1-pouce/?sku=5360356754

Tifosi make a 1 inch threadless with or without eyelets, it's not straight, so slightly less "cool", but it wasn't all that heavy and did the job.

There are a few second-hand option, as said before, but you could look into Time Forks, toward the end they made a few 1" Unthreder IIRC.

There are new options too, namely this:

The same seller has the matching headset, which is necessary as the fork as an integrated crown

Hi all,

I'm looking for a GT Edge Reynolds 853 from 1997 in any shape (I'll probably respray it)

Thanks!

I'm looking at CNC 1" Stems, could you pm me the links? TA

I tried to find a straight threadless 1" fork, but couldn't.
If you have any suggestion, I'm all ears.
My options, or at least the last time I looked, for 1 inch straight forks, were Time (on it) and Kinesis Wedge or Aero; other potential candidates were Reynolds Ouzo or Tusk.
Given the chance, I'd love Carbon and straight, so if you have any suggestions, I'd love to hear them! Thanks!

Agreed. It was very practical when the bike was my commutourer, but it looks odd now.
I'm thinking of removing the welded rack mounts, and have it resprayed the same colour, but this time the logo will be polished aluminium, and maybe lower stays too. Like a ZR2000 or whatever the following generation alloy triple triangle were....
That or transfering all the components on a Reynolds GT Edge aka the uniGTorn, if I could find one

That's a good point I will probably disregard.
I know they look wank, but I want to see how ugly they'll look for myself. I'll sell a kidney and give it a go.

-edit- and yes I realise these forks are nice...
-edit- Tester, how about a Kinesis Wedge?

Thanks!

Now if anybody has a 100mm Salsa quill stem and a Alien USE 27.2mm carbon seatpost, I'm all hears! And why not a threaded Wound Up fork, that would be nice too

Hi all,
After purchasing my touring bike, I decided to update, or revert rather, my GT Force to a "racing" bike so because I had 3 months of downtime I purchased a few things, namely new larger HB, an SRAM Chainring, and I was given a pair of Mavic R-SYS Red from 2010.
The bike is now lighter, and more dangerous...

Next level slamming... Nice tough. I wonder how that'd look with SRAM eTap

Ha! I just commented on your PedalRoom Post while browsing PR! the Build turned out great!

So so rad! Awesome bike!

Touché.
Still, it's a fucking mess. And those Ergo Stem, they make no sense whatsoever...

ATH-IM70: Interchangeable cables, fairly flat frequency response, slightly cheaper than Shures. I prefer the high-end compared to the SE105 I had. Overall good fit. I lost a pair and bought them again. Also, root your phone and get Viper4android if you have an android phone. Best upgrade in a long time: allows to tweak audio response very accurately and will suqeeze out the best of any heapdhones. Oneplus Bullets V2 are also exccellent quality/price ratio, if a bit too bassy, they're really not bad for the price: cheap and cheerful!

I somewhat get the HHSRB-ness, but it's a bit of a mess isn't it?
I mean, it's just a collection of expensive and rare-ish parts with no real coherence...
And come on: Rotor cranks, and flat pedals? Ergo-Stem and Ergon seatpost? that makes no sense IMO. Feels like the owner deliberately picked parts to avoid having too light of a bike...
Meh.

Repost?
Is it me or the rear tubes are not bent the same way or really symmetrical?

SRAM Force would be adequate here, no? I'm such a sucker for this GT... I have an alloy force but would like a steel one instead....

And for stem options, how bout' that:

I have one but dunno whether it's a 100 or 110mm... Will check soon. PM me if you're interested!

The Cyfac is so rad! It's the first bike I see where coloured tyres aren't bad. Awesome, awesome build.

I like the red actually, the bags themselves are not vey good though.
I bought the front ones today and they're much better.

Getting ready for some light touring!

Well, fair enough! Thanks!

This is a long shot:
I have 2 saddles on my 2 bikes: a Concor Supercorsa that I find a bit hard but I like the shape and support, and a brooks Cambium C17 Shaped: I like the width and shape overall but find it too hard.

I'm going on a 200km ride soon and was wondering if somebody with similar buttendencies could recommend a confortable touring saddle?
Should I just not bother trying to find something new and buy padded undies/shorts instead?
Thanks Hive Mind!

New biek: Commuter and Tourer for this summer, really happy with it.
I need to change the Mudguards as those are shite; Should have gone for SKS Longboards to start with.

@rawmeat I wasn't expecting to see this here. Thanks!
I think that it lacks a carbon wheelset and a better stem/handlebar combo to properly fit here...

Voilà! Spaces have been added!
Likewise, it was a pleasure to meet you too! And If there's anything I can help with in Paris, let me know mate! All the best
