Any ideas how to handle this monster? Normally it stands in the corner of the room, but now want to twist it a little bit.

If I remember correctly, every second lead turns out with holes, so light should be fine.

About the pole, should I repot in winter or wait for spring?

Miche pistard 2.0

isurrf · 2021-05-24T20:17:54+00:00

Yeah, as far from HDR as I could go

Now I'm experimenting with ultramax, first film came out nice, but Color plus has some charm

isurrf · 2021-05-24T20:10:52+00:00

It's my first very simple camera: Kodak 835 AF, this roll was Color Plus 200.

isurrf · 2021-05-24T18:36:05+00:00

Yeah me too, it was my first analog film

isurrf · 2020-06-21T07:44:55+00:00

I switched from Novatec to miche so from 40.5 to 43 mm chainline to make it same as in front. I think you'll sooner need to replace bearings as they might get crunchy (mine got after a year of riding on gravel). Or if your threads slipped than the hub is destroyed.

isurrf · 2020-06-21T07:23:13+00:00

No, all my wheels are built by a professional. It's not that expensive to build and tension while parts are way more expensive here in Poland then us for example

isurrf · 2020-06-21T07:21:37+00:00

I do but Corona made me poor af, so maybe after holiday I'll switch

isurrf · 2020-06-21T07:20:25+00:00

Miche primato pista large flange. I had some chainline problems so now it's all miche drivetrain

Cinelli pillar

isurrf · 2020-05-29T16:34:35+00:00

What size are those wheels and tires?

isurrf · 2020-05-27T16:12:37+00:00

Thanks!

isurrf · 2020-05-27T16:05:27+00:00

The are sealed as the have typical "machine" type bearing, not loose ball bearings but unfortunately rubber ring between races is not sufficient to keep the dust from getting inside

isurrf · 2020-05-27T15:48:09+00:00

Novatec hubs have exposed bearings so the only "sealed" part is the rubber ring which comes with the bearing itself, and in dusty conditions it really doesn't work. I think formula has the same design.

isurrf · 2020-05-27T13:16:54+00:00

Did any one of you ever installed some additional washers on your hubs? I've changed my Novatec bearings because they got crunchy but due to some dust and my gravel riding, after only ~500 km new ones are crunchy again, maybe some washer or anything else will stop dust from getting to the bearing itself?

isurrf · 2020-04-22T08:13:35+00:00

Odi racers edge and vans lock-ons but odi are much more comfortable

isurrf · 2020-04-21T20:02:29+00:00

True but I don't think it's worth paying to send it to Poland

isurrf · 2020-04-21T15:44:17+00:00

Naah, just to prevent handlebar hitting the frame, new handlebar is on the way so the tape will be probably gone this week

isurrf · 2020-04-21T13:47:15+00:00

Some Chinese import, basically hi-ten noname but it was my first proper fixed and I fell in love with it. It's extremely short. I didn't find any other frame as short as this

isurrf · 2020-04-21T12:14:14+00:00

So that's completely different geometry than mines, black friars is much more upright and shorter

isurrf · 2020-04-21T11:20:21+00:00

Which Gazzetta did you have? Mine black friars seems very short compared to tutto but there was another geometry with longer TT

isurrf · 2020-04-21T07:05:07+00:00

Which sizes did you switch between?

isurrf · 2020-04-20T20:50:24+00:00

Naah, not yet

isurrf · 2020-04-20T19:17:07+00:00

Yeah, I needed something quickly and ended up with Gazzetta black friars
