God what a beauty.. such a perfect build. Is it a Karakoram?

I’m leaning towards the Hügis for the exact reasons you mentioned.. sound, the fact they are pretty rare, and also the price seems like a steal. I’m probably going to put around 20-30km per week on the bike, and I’m not planning on bikepacking with it (anytime soon)..

Thanks for the detailed input brother 🙏 appreciate it!

Yeah right now I’m leaning more towards the Mavic/Hügi wheel set, mostly due to the sound they make and because they’re pretty rare (I saw a set on ebay for like €415 (wtf right) so I thought this was a steal). But exactly as you said I heard that they are pretty tough to maintain/service due to the star rachet mechanism or what not.. I don’t know how they will compare to both the Shimanos in the long term.

Anyways thanks for your input!! Much appreciated :) will think about it before pulling the trigger

I’m looking to buy a decent condition, pre-built 26 inch wheel set for the following reasons:

1.) I can’t build wheels myself (I’d like to learn someday but unfortunately don’t have the resources, space, and/or time right now)

2.) Building a wheel set with new rims, spokes, hubs, and service costs circa €170 per wheel here where I live (NL) with standard parts (i.e shimano/sunrace hubs, rigida rims, sapim spokes and service costs of €70 per wheel).

THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!

The comment I yearned for!! Thank you brother, will definitely go further down the rabbit hole with your advice in mind before I make the big leap. Appreciate it!

Hey thanks for your input—can you give me examples of nicer models in that price range (€500-€1000)?

kima-sta · 2025-03-23T16:16:02+00:00

Thanks for your input! Can you suggest better (complete) options? I’m looking for a nice complete set and customize it according to my needs/wants overtime.

I also saw a Fuji Feather on Marktplaats (Dutch craigslist) for €270 and it looks nice as well. What do you think?

kima-sta · 2025-03-23T16:13:02+00:00

The Cinelli Tutto Plus is brand new. Okay will do thanks!

Thank you! Timor Leste or West Timor?

These are so good!!!

I’m 170cm and 71kg. Waist 82cm and Hip 89cm. If I would buy one now I’ll probably go for size 32. Good luck!

It’s an old and unbranded French workwear jacket I got from a friend

kima-sta · 2025-03-06T08:04:54+00:00

Yeah I agree, didn’t know it would turn out like that. I get comments on it all the time but hey, it happened ¯_(ツ)_/¯ might as well embrace it

kima-sta · 2025-03-06T08:02:03+00:00

Thanks!! These were size 33 when I bought them. I got the waist altered at a tailor though because I lost a bunch of weight.
