FYI, the Rollhoff manual says that on small wheels (under 26") the spokes should not cross the flange bolts - for me this is just a general rule and I never do it.

If you fell like going deep, Keith Bontrager has a very long rant on v-brakes including details on why you don't need them and how to make your cantis rule supreme! V Brakes - the best brake in the universe! (Sheldon would be proud!)

Djernis' 1994, Nørrebrogade - as a bike messenger ?!

I tried - do you have a link?

No but I can forward your contacts if you’re interested in buying? He’s based on fyn in Denmark and doesn’t send😊

Does anyone know where to fine the ritchey catalogs from 1998 to 2000? looking specially for material on the plexus Thanks

Looks really great! I think I like the bontrager post and stem maybe (90mm🥰) - but benjabbi’s right it’s about what fits! You are gonna run the shifters friction or try to set it up 10sp? I don’t know the Paul shifter but my guess is it will work just fine - it matches shimano 8sp right? So...

Understandable!! But just saying I would be tempted, check out Broqn race lite https://www.retrobike.co.uk/threads/the-late-great-bontrager-race-lite.449477/page-11

That’s the first 90mm I see! Amazing! What handlebars are you running? Would be impossible for me to resist putting something wider on! Like some simworks or ti’s

Coming together nicely! A silver Tange or CK would look neat or a black one😎. I would skip the ano brake pads and keep the chain rings or even better find some nice black ones (know I’m slightly conservative) How short is that stem? I been looking for a short one for ages, ended up concluding...

A nice bike you got there! For me bontrager screams not bull shit - so tune would be great. I think coloured parts should be kept at a minimum, so maybe blue hubs would be too much (the levers are great)

I'm trying to find good information about the Privateer forks, but it seams hard. Been writing a bunch of guys here, to get some measurements but thy don't seam to be very popular, most retrobikes have replaced them whit suspension :) The two mane questions is what’s the rake and A-to-C...
