This thread is full of haine

The current Cosmic Carbone SLRs with the exalith coating look awsome. They have that all black look + the red and yellow decals would much nicely the frame !

Still heavy though. Sell your cosmic and buy some corima.

Maybe upgrade again your wheelset for a full carbon tubular one

DA 7700 is fine. Is your stem clamp oversized for the handlebar you spec'd ?

I often see on ebay 1 1/4 stems you should check here

Hi, really lost with the crankset offer right now.
I'd like a light one, outer cups system, no square taper etc.

Two piece crankset (cranks + star), might be more failure-able than regular ones right ? I think about cracking sounds for example.
However the future new CX1 seems to be a two-piece one :

I think those look stronger :

Any advice ?

I found this for you on mtbr forums :

With a 38 tire clearance, I prefer 100 grams less and a little more profiled rim, after all it's just 0.8mm between mavic and pacenti.

Mavic are too heavy. I thought about A23 in the past, however after building a wheelset with 650 aerohead, I can say I'm not satisfied with velocity's quality, lot of shit in the spoke holes, poor rim joint.

Maybe I should save money for the pacenti then. I read here that archetype were absorbing water, so probably not the best choice for a CX touring bike.

I just found wheels for the serotta ! 650 corima !

Oops i didn't see "modern". Go for secondhand anyway.

Save the boardman money to get a nice steel frame and (or with) a 10 speed groupset + decent wheelset like neutrons.

I agree with you, if it works then it's fine.
My suggestion was purely based on aesthetics.

Yes, those black vento looked great but were a pain to ride. Way too heavy for la vallée de chevreuse.

Actually this is a MTB crankset.
There's plenty of nicest things than old ultegra crankset, without spending too much ££££, don't feel hurt.

It rides great too !

Gaston, finally you won, there's no more advertising on pf.con ! It took me a few hours to figure out what was missing on the website.

By the way you french experts, I would appreciate what you think about my current projects, like what crankset for the CX touring Gunnar, and stuff like that.

Moreover they're reflective

Ah.
No problem with the spynergy, I ride them on my daily, jumping over the pavement without any problems. Some used them for cyclocross. The problem with the internet is that you only hear the bad but never the good, they're pretty strong wheels, at least mine in 650.

Multi grooves don't take it bad but I don't understand what you wrote. Maybe death mags is English humor about the full black Gunnar ?

Thanks guys !

What stem is that? Lovely build.

An ITM colnago stem, like this one, but in black. It is curved like the gilco tubing.

Hi there, as I'm new on the forum I'm to shy to open two different threads for to different projects, should I ?

First one, Gunnar Crosshairs :

Right here right now here it is

I ordered :
x2
to avoid shuddering

34c x 2
36/48

What I need :
A crankset, Sram Force 22 ? I want an exern BB

Wheels :
I think about Archetype with White Ind t11 (non proprietary bearings, titanium freehub body = good investment ?)

Pacenti sl23 look great but cost twice the Hplus.

Being on a budget right now, I'll ride mavic cosmos.

Any idea for the cassette ? 11-28 ?
And what SPDs ?

SEROTTA tri colorado

I need
an affordable JIS BB 107 or 108 for a middleburn RS2 crank 55/44 chainrings
Compact handlebars (Soma HWY one or bontys)
Quill stem -5 or -6 degrees, but does it exist ?
A saddle (prologo zero pas)

Eventually a carbon tubular 650c wheelset

That's all
