What bike part always fascinates you ?

Cranks and stems, particularly stems - I have several I know I'll never use, but just can't bring myself to sell.

I think wheels are amazing, so light yet so strong.

Still can't get my head round the fact that a quality lightweight front wheel weighs less than a reasonably light tyre.

a lightweight front wheel yesterday

Mmmmmm ...

I quite like the frame itself I find myself staring at the welds and drop outs whilst I should be doing other stuff :? strange

Infact so much so I have three frames at the mo, one I will be building up within the next week or so and two that I may have to just hang on a wall in the house Shhhh though or I will get into trouble by Mrs Retro

Anything CNC'd, some items are works of computer art designed by humans to a minimalist specification. Cranks and stems in particular.

Mainly cranks, followed by rear mechs I think, then brakes, then...

They are complex functional sculptures, purpose dictates form = Ooooh

I do love a bit of super smooth mirror polished aluminium...

Frames.

I've bought frames with no intention of building them up at all. Love them.

Suspension and cnc parts for me.

Wheels mostly particular ethe dish in modern rear road wheels. So much dish and yet the wheel stays true.

every part of a bike facinates me.
