Pace RC200 F6 Disc Klamper

[Betsy]

Something Old, Something New, Nothing Borrowed, Nothing Blue



Ive been riding around on rat trap pass extralights for the last few months so i don't need the suspension forks



The grips are repro's from this place in France, def recommended


The stem which i de-ano'd recently


I was waiting for the grey compound to land in April but Father Christmas dropped these down my chimney.
Damn they roll fast!












Not one for the pureists (although i have picked up lots of other period Pace bits along the way) but it's certainly a fun ride.. still need to sort the crank out and maybe swap the champagne pedals for black cage.. eventually.

Looks very cool,what are the shifters like to use as thumbies?

V.V.V. nice. I had to look the tyres up. Then swiftly looked away having seen the price! Your ride deserves them though

I think the RTP were the more expensive out of the 2 pairs, they're so light the side walls are almost seethrough but they are like riding on marshmellow clouds

The changes are really firm but positive with a loud click and perfect change but you can't whip up and down the cassette with any speed.

Thanks gents!

That's a fantastic looking build
It's got attitude on the rat traps
And looks class/classic on the tan walls .
The stem was worth waiting for and refinishing

Thanks @Blackers

I took it out for a blast around Lady Canning's yesterday.. being Sheffield everything is either at the top or the bottom of a steep hill.. i managed to nail it up this loose gravely section on those Ultradynamico's.. Ive been pushing it up that section on the Rat Traps

When I bought that Pace it had been a weight weenie project built with 80% British components, USE carbon fibre post and bars, Hope Pro SP-XC3's on Stanz with an unusual grey Flight.. It had BB7's mounted to that CNC'd caliper mount (which i wanted to utilise with the Klampers) It came with RC31's & RC35's a Pace crud catcher Pace stem ect..
The seller claimed "One owner from new" but all the components dated from 2009-13 and they looked brand new, almost unridden whereas the frame has a few marks here and there consistent with a previous existence.
Ive been making upgrades as things/£££ becomes available.. the only thing left from the 09-13 build is the Middleburn Duo crank and rings, ive stuck a NOS M952 front mech on there and i'm using friction shift to change up and down the 2x rings so it needs sorting out.. then i think i'll call it a day.
