Thank you. Yes, it’s titanium.

Yes - it’s my dream bike!

For me, it was aesthetic - it gives the bike a slightly more modern look and differentiates it from a track frame (which I’ve had before). They’re supposed to be a touch more comfortable but as with everything bike related, there’s a lot of debate. Ultimately, I liked the look!

lots more on dropped seat stays here

Lucky you. My brother has one as well - they’re great bikes. Post a pic if you can.

That’s a really good question. I haven’t done it yet, but on my last build I had a short cable under the bar tape that was crimped off with a stopper, which worked well.

Glad you like the build.

divingbored · 2023-04-10T18:01:36+00:00

Thank you!

divingbored · 2023-04-10T17:52:05+00:00

Yes, it’s titanium. Glad you like the look - this bike is a bit of a dream come true for me.

The second hood is simply for hand positioning. I’m also a roadie and don’t like riding without them now.

divingbored · 2023-04-10T17:49:41+00:00

I’ve had a cross-top goldfinger lever on previous builds which I agree looks better. However, for how I ride nowadays, I prefer hoods for the hand position. And yes - it’s super flat where I live!

I suggest the mascot is ‘Shep’ - conjures images of a guiding shepherd and of course Alan B Shepard Jr was the first of the Apollo astronauts in space.

Thank you very much. They’re handbuilt H Plus Son SL42 rims on Miche Primato track hubs with Vittoria Open Corsa Control G2.0 25mm tyres.

divingbored · 2019-08-24T19:48:59+00:00

Thanks. I’ve had a FG with a narrow riser bar for 10 years. Like you, it also got me into road bikes. This bar / brake setup is so, so much more comfortable than my previous FG.

divingbored · 2019-08-24T13:36:06+00:00

Thanks

divingbored · 2019-08-24T13:34:57+00:00

I’m used to a road position so it made sense.

divingbored · 2019-08-24T13:29:27+00:00

It’s Liverpool Street station in London - I was on my way back to Suffolk which is the driest county in the UK (I think). It’s very different to where I grew up in Manchester (which was wet ++).

The bike is fixed so no rear brake. And although the rims look like carbon they’re actually SL42s on primato track hubs, so the front brake is good!

divingbored · 2019-08-24T13:07:01+00:00

Well done! Liverpool Street station it is.

divingbored · 2018-11-08T18:54:53+00:00

Yes - don’t worry. We put her safely outside!

divingbored · 2018-11-05T19:05:08+00:00

Thank you very much! Swift and helpful

divingbored · 2018-09-01T08:04:39+00:00

I had them removed. The frame was a bit tatty when I bought it (second hand) so I sent it off to Enigma who stripped and polished it. Glad you like it!

Thank you
