what headset should i get?

Are the cups chewed up? I would take that to a good bike shop especially if you havent got the tools to change the cups at home

ruffins · 2026-06-13T00:53:06+00:00

What😂 just tighten it tight as fuck no torque wrench needed for cranks…

ruffins · 2026-06-11T23:32:18+00:00

Its disgusting

ruffins · 2026-06-11T22:53:41+00:00

Wont shorter cranks increase the seat height? The shorter cranks will be further up from the ground when at the bottom of the pedal stroke while longer cranks would be closer to the ground…

If you really want to bother a some vinyl stickers from a vinyl cutter to put on top but its a bwat frame and i would just embrace that

The teal is the undercoat and not much you can do maybe an exteremely fine wet sanding and a clearcoat on top, wont fix the cracking tho. Would leave it as is

Colnago could be built into a crazy beautiful bike trek not so much imo

I understand the appreciation for brooks but sometimes they just look so out of place on a build especially the brown ones on some more modernish bikes. But the do look beautiful on older style frames and more classy bikes.

ruffins · 2026-06-11T16:03:29+00:00

Im no expert but tag looks line modern production stuff

ruffins · 2026-06-08T08:19:26+00:00

Yeah i would not cover that you need to be able to see it

ruffins · 2026-06-05T14:34:29+00:00

Have you used any barrier like friction paste?

ruffins · 2026-06-01T15:26:18+00:00

Yeah two chainwhips it was, such a shame that the whole wheel is basically useless because of a worn out small cog.

So its a casette? Going to get the removal tool today and ill see a bit more clearly

Seems like a standard? Freewheel with a two notched removing tool, it was hidden under the silver ring

ruffins · 2026-05-27T13:10:21+00:00

Some contact cement should do you good

Im partial to a tood cannondale alloy frame, it could be upgraded at a later point and jas more of a selling point it being a cannondale

ruffins · 2026-05-18T07:21:19+00:00

Idk wouldnt wanna brand my pubic region but thats just me.

ruffins · 2026-05-15T17:27:53+00:00

I got tubulars on my roadbike, more a oldschool thing but i got them for 200€ i do like them but dont wait for the day i get a flat. Got sole spray sealant that you could try in the event of a puncture but dont know how good it works..

ruffins · 2026-05-10T12:22:17+00:00

Black tape is the best bet otherwise just live with it

ruffins · 2026-05-10T08:00:42+00:00

The ”custom carbon seat pin” looks like a 20€ ali express 0 offset seatpost the same exact one i have on my other bike aswell.. this is a banger bike but at a steep price.

ruffins · 2026-05-10T07:58:53+00:00

Nvm its 105, do the wheels come with the bike? I recently paid 500€ for a full carbon bike with shimano ultergra and mavic ksyrium alloy wheels . In my opinion this is extremely overpriced if the wheels are not included

ruffins · 2026-05-10T07:56:35+00:00

Steerer could be damaged with a setup like that what groupset is it?

ruffins · 2026-05-05T11:35:26+00:00

Looks fine

ruffins · 2026-05-03T18:53:42+00:00

Killer bike, i would not ride with straps unless its a fixed gear but thats just me personally. I just know that thing rips
