Bontrager OR -1995/1996

[Rambo Mambo]

Now with the ti spoke Tune/ZTR wheels and psychos. Looking better I think. Currently 9.4kg.

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 that 110mm was the shortest thy made them

Thank you
Black Tange to be fitted today.
I like the blue bits as they match up with the levers.
As for chainrings I’ll play around but i like a little bling to be honest- I’m sure you can tell.
Stem is 90mm.
More to come.

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

The bar, post and stem are all OEM so I’m not tempted to change them at this point. Bar width is approximately 560mm which is plenty for me.

Coming together nicely.
I'd stick with the Tune wheels personally.
Ateks are light but super narrow and the funky shape makes getting the brakes feeling nice more of a chore.

If your tempted to go for a wider bar - but still in keeping with OEM theme … take a look at Titec ‘Flat Trackers’ (also available in titanium). Not stupid wide , with about 12 degrees back sweep - which also be used as a gentle up-sweep / rise.

The titanium model are shimmed out to 31.8mm so would need alt. stem (Titect)

Build is looking cool , those smaller Bontrager frames look rad! - my own are L - XL.

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

I have a pair of Ti Flat trackers on mine, which just happens to be Broqns old frame.
