OS Blackbuck

Re:

Final updates - Quite close to the original build, except the fourth wheel I located has a Syncros rim and silver nipples.

Red Flite remains as does the bottle cage.

It's a great looking machine!
I'm sure I'm asking a question that you've already answered, but do the seat stays being curved make it stiffer?

Also, that front wheel was an unbelievable bargain. I was watching it last week and forgot to bid.

Re:

Yeah it was a bargain matches the other 3 I already had almost too perfectly. It means the Selma I have has a complete set of wheels and I'm going to stick1x9 on the Selma with maybe a bit of front end bounce.

OS rear end is pretty stiff - aesthetically beautiful! I believe it was primarily to help shorten the wheelbase length. It is a really great ride.

That's a sweet looking bike. Those seat stays are lovely.
