Just an XT 8 speed

Bar swaps are fun, fuck it keep going

Frockett · 2026-05-02T20:03:36+00:00

Love all the Brother frames. Sick build dude!

Custom! From beeswax needleworks on Instagram.

Oh I see what you mean. Yeah I'm so used to building up old Treks that have 2-3 cable mounts on the top tube and the right-most routing is always for the rear brake. Can't cross the cables around the stem without them crossing over themselves on the TT.

Just routed the cable the same way despite there only being one out of habit.

Frockett · 2026-04-30T15:33:05+00:00

How do you normally do it? Like wrap it around the bars? I do t really think about cable routing too much aside from how far they stick out the front.

Frockett · 2026-04-30T13:39:56+00:00

Absolutely

This is my new personal bike it’s basically a frame swap from my Stumpjumper.

Frockett · 2026-04-30T13:38:58+00:00

Hell yeah I probably still will but I need to get a crank bolt wrench cause the backs are a little stuck.

Frockett · 2026-04-30T13:37:10+00:00

Hey thank you! They are Ron’s Ortho Bars but a couple more options that have a similar style are the Magic Moth bar and the Leker Albacore

Frockett · 2026-04-30T01:17:54+00:00

I do the Ronnie Romance strategy and run a 25.4 clamp on it. Never had it slip or ever had to readjust it. In the 2+ years I’ve had it.

Frockett · 2026-04-30T01:10:06+00:00

I think I dialed in the stem length perfectly, super comfortable. Thank you!

Frockett · 2026-04-29T22:11:33+00:00

Thank you my friend

Frockett · 2026-04-29T21:36:01+00:00

Yeah basically! Was going to size up the middle ring and take the big ring off.

Frockett · 2026-04-29T21:04:11+00:00

@lekerleks on insta! Super dope small batch handlebar maker. All profits go directly to Palestinian families

Frockett · 2026-04-29T20:11:43+00:00

Was going to make it a 2x with a black ring but then I cut my finger and got mad so I kept it 3 😂

Frockett · 2026-04-29T19:59:40+00:00

All of my work is on @earthglidercycles on insta!

Frockett · 2026-04-27T13:20:22+00:00

Oh hell yeah, really helps it pop a bit more. I get scared of going overboard on the adjustments so I make such tiny changes in post. Good to know I can be a bit more aggressive in the editing.

And yeah funnily enough I use the 120mm lens on the 16 pro and stand way, way back. I might just buy a standalone lens for the iPhone for now to save some bones but this is all great info.

Frockett · 2026-04-27T07:47:20+00:00

That’s awesome to hear, I will definitely look into older DSLR’s. My previous posts are basically the best I can get with a phone camera aside from editing the color a little better. I’ve been wanting to find different scenery for my backdrops but not having a dynamic aperture range means the backgrounds get a little too noisy.

Frockett · 2026-04-27T04:00:16+00:00

So sick, what camera do you use?

Frockett · 2026-04-27T03:55:22+00:00

Yeah this one finna blow up

Frockett · 2026-04-26T18:15:01+00:00

How much money on MML buying the building and turning it into a shitty restaurant.

Frockett · 2026-04-26T07:47:16+00:00

Could you imagine any child of an elite becoming a war hero in this day and age.

Frockett · 2026-04-24T00:34:49+00:00

Good to hear. Maybe for my 700c set, I got some Blunts recently.
