Here is my build after looking for a nice fork for quite some time. All in all, I am pretty happy how it turned out in the end.

Buy the same again for cheap money for example...

looks like a good deal at that price :-)

Thx, appreciated. So I assume any decent 1 1/8" external headset should be fine?

Hey guys, what kind of headset would you recommend for replacing the old On-One smoothie regular that came with my Pompino frame? Thx in advance.

So, what happened to your build? Did you finish it?

Hey folks,
I'm in the process of building up my Pomp. I'm totally new to canti/mini-v breaks and not sure how they work with certain drop bar levers. I got a pair of Sram S500 levers in my parts bin and was wondering if they were compatible with TRP CX8.4 mini v-brakes. I would be thankful for any advice. Cheers

Good morning people, could you help me identify the version and build year of this Pompino frame?
Raw finish, no wishbone seat stay, no cable hanger, only one eyelet at the rear dropouts. I'm thankful for any help. Cheers

thanks for the advice. was also pondering if 0.2mm make much of a difference anyway...

Thanks. 29.8 what an oddish measurement... Does anyone have one lying around by any chance?

Hey folks,
about to join the pompino gang rather soonish, used frameset on its way to me.
What size of seatclamp goes on the pomp? I know it takes a 27,2mm seatpost, but what diameter of clamp do I need? Thank you in advance :-)

2nds dibs on EAI cog, shipping to Germany also required.

Did you change your mind in the meantime by any chance?

any idea how much usage/ kilometer it has seen? would you post to germany by any chance?

hi, is your 17t superstar still available? how is its condition? how much are you looking for?
Thx in advance

Had a look at their online form, unfortunately only useable by residents of England and Wales.
Since I'am German, no chance for me.
If it wasn't for that rather small amount of money (not worth the hassle), I would probably take legal action...

exactly what i observed...

yeah, the wannabe elite cog looks suspiciously similar to the cheapo novatec that came stock with my langster years ago. therefore i'm not even willing to get out the chain whip and skrew it on...

via credit card i guess

apart from continuously offering a refund, with cost of the return being my responsibility, nothing will happen from their side.

3 easy steps to saving your companies' reputation (if you ever had one):
A- admit the shit you've done
A- apologize for the shit you've done
C - compensate for the shit you've done

"My opinion & not a fact? Sorry, but now it is really getting of the charts.
Attached are the pictures of the EAI sprocket from the Euro-Asia Imports website, from your online shop and a picture of your own branded "Elite" sprocket.

This surely is a poorly executed effort of fraud.

no further answers from them...

this is awesome man :-P

yup, so pathically executed.

now it's getting of the charts with those fuckers, even denying their poor effort of fraud...

Dear Florian,
The image is not photoshopped, this is your opinion not a fact.
If you are unhappy with the product you are welcome to return it for a full refund.

my still way to friendly reply:

"Dear Michelle,
thank you for your answer. However, I'am really upset about the issue right now. Apart from the notched section, the tooth profile is entirely different, which should not be the case, if the cogs are essentially the same product apart from tooth count...
In fact, I figured on closer inspection that you used a photoshopped image of an eai superstar premium cog (https://www.velodrome.shop/track-sprockets/eai-superstar-premium-cog/), that you are also selling in your shop, to advertise your own branded budget cog. Combined with your "RRP - Compared at"-method, you promise customers getting a product of a quality similar/equal to the EAI superstar cog, but without paying for the expensive "branding".
By using those misleading strategies, you are deliberately luring customers into buying a quality-wise disappointing product, while they are in anticipation of something far superior.
Please let me know how Velodrome Shop wants to handle the issue.
Regards,

Florian"
