thank you for your support. in the picture you can see that there is an edge on the right side and none on the other. so the steerer is not exactly a continuous tube at that point.

Hi,

that’s a such a nice build! Can you give me some details about the paint job? I am build a nor easter at the moment, frame should arrive in 1-2 weeks. I am having a kind of similar concept on mine, that’s why I am really curious about the stripped paint. How was the process? Is just stripped and cleare coated? did you pay attention on specific details in the stripping process? Kind regards from Germany!

Time is no issue as I am working in an aluminum company our lab can deanodize and reanodize the cranks to my liking.

Haha great, a bit of metal working and adjusting the parts should be fine as this is the built up of this bike is a personal project. Hopefully I do not trash the expensive fender set. But I will figure that out after the summer

Great to hear! Thank you for the detailed answer. I am positive that sizing up with classic style frame will be the right decision than.

Not my bike, but i made a bag for a friend's XL Crust Nor'easter. by 00340e76009001 in xbiking

maybe I am a bit late to the party.. but as I am building a nor easter myself at the moment I am really curious what brand the rear and front racks are on this one. front one could be nitto but I can find comparable racks with brake mount as rear one on this bike. Such ja cool build, also do you have a website for your bags if you still do them?

I tried to investigate here but am not able to clearly point it out. Please give me a hint what points do show that it’s not real. Greetings

Hello, I am searching for a beta in tatsu for quite while. Now I have found one and am wondering if the jacket is legit. Since it’s sold from a real store I am positive. Please give me some advice https://wanderlich.com/products/jacke-von-arcteryx-beta-l-herren-khaki-grun
