I’ve been putting off taking it for powder coating but, will probably be doing it this month. In an illusion cherry. With white cable outers, the promised blue decals and some very, very shiny silver parts

And of course the time pedals

Stay tuned..

Wowza thats a big shifter. Is that Di3?

Making a mute option for derailleurs is absolutely brilliant. About time. Noisy feckers.

Nope, eTouch

It’s actually a lot smaller in person. I was surprised when I opened the package.

The only joy I get from derailleurs is using a friction shifter to sweep the cassette to the lowest gear in one smooth lever action bonanza, and then returning it to the high gear like I'm cooking a revolver for a wild west shootout in front of the saloon

Ye haw!

Excited to see the bike powdercoated and finished. I thought initially you were going to opt for a ss drivetrain?

I just spontaneusly ordered a 1x11 gear group while drinking because I was unsure if I wanted to run IGH, singlespeed or derailleur so I'm with you there

Will you be going 3x?

Wait I didn’t mean it like that I DIDNT MEAN IT LIKE THAT


No I was going to go for a sort of 70s campagnolo track crank set and go 1x7 or perhaps find a TA specialties crankset that doesn’t burn a hole in my pocket
