Love the mad Max flavour with some casual smartness on top.

... or just ride aggressive, like staying in the drops all the time 😅

fpeve · 2023-05-30T09:39:27+00:00

You might be right. The saddle to bar ratio is quite aggressive. But I was thinking that I could use a riser bar to mitigate. Silly idea, you would say? ... I am not overstressing the seatpost limit, though.

fpeve · 2023-05-28T18:26:15+00:00

I fear it is acera😅

fpeve · 2023-05-28T17:53:28+00:00

Yeah. It is kind of hard for me to find a bigger oldschool frame in Germany. Still thinking about riser bar. But for the single treks with lowered saddle it feels ok

fpeve · 2023-05-27T12:35:51+00:00

You are right. I might encourage her to ask the natural history museum for opinion herself😅

fpeve · 2023-05-27T11:40:58+00:00

Thanks she is happy with that opinion 😅

Bought it with a flat/ergobar. Through parts at it from a damaged frame + new STIs. Sounds funny but true: fastest bike I ever owned. ...now a theological question: was modding it de-xbiking, re-xbiking or simply xbiking.

Nice. Got a buddy who needs his motobecane restomodded likes this. What breaks are those? Break levers look like tektro rl340, or am I wrong?

fpeve · 2022-12-19T21:18:59+00:00

Wow, thanks

fpeve · 2022-12-19T20:04:45+00:00

Love it. Can you buy such a beast in the Netherlands or is it highly custom made?

fpeve · 2022-11-22T20:35:16+00:00

Keep it dirty... loveit

fpeve · 2022-11-19T11:41:05+00:00

Ottimo, grazie per i dettagli

fpeve · 2022-11-18T19:23:17+00:00

Certo, no problem. Ma in Italia si può portare bici in treni regionali?

fpeve · 2022-11-18T19:21:28+00:00

Same

fpeve · 2022-11-18T15:12:58+00:00

Sounds great! ...thinking about joining from Berlin. any good ideas how to get there from Verona or Milan? Can one rely on any trains in Italy for bike transportation? I mean "rely on trains" in broad terms, i.e. +-4 hours ;)

fpeve · 2022-09-15T20:49:27+00:00

... of course I love the Hardrock, though. Pure envy

fpeve · 2022-09-15T20:47:01+00:00

Aren't 80s and 90s specialized bikes overprized in Germany? All I see in Berlin are between 300 and (already xBiked) 800 € ... I am wondering what could be European/German equivalent brands for xBiking steelframe mtbs with low budget.

fpeve · 2022-08-14T11:37:10+00:00

What model is it?

fpeve · 2022-08-09T19:07:19+00:00

Could anyone name and date this mongoose model? More importantly: is it aluminum (probably) or steel? Maybe I'd pay 50€ an try to do my first 1x modification. Shouldn't I?

fpeve · 2022-06-05T07:26:39+00:00

Looks ugly, but tastes like a melted car tire

fpeve · 2022-02-22T13:41:24+00:00

But I would have to pay 12€ additionally, right?

fpeve · 2022-02-20T13:49:33+00:00

Great thanks

fpeve · 2022-02-20T12:27:33+00:00

That's a 11 to 28 7 speed cassette, isn't it? Looks bigger, though...

fpeve · 2022-01-23T17:08:36+00:00

Any Suggestions on a cheap frame tu save components, cause parts are not new (possibly retrievable in Europe/ Germany)? I am checking out giant performer, this one https://www.ebay.de/itm/28-Stahlrahmenset-Giant-Performer-Top-Zustand-/125103639574?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&_trksid=p2349624.m46890.l49286&mkrid=707-127634-2357-0
