Oh shit that thing costs 2k lol
Has this not been discussed? The drama around that thing is interesting Apparently WTP basically stole the design from a smaller brand and beat them to market. I don’t recall the full story.

Fingers crossed is the shit
Yeah Ruben’s company Fingers Crossed came out with a prototype ages ago, then WTP went to market with it. Deathpack was making a full sus BMX as well but when FC got theirs into production he politely stopped making em and told people to buy from Ruben instead.
god damn i want one of those
And like most things bicycle “stole the design” is more like “re-popularized a pre-existing idea using modern materials”

Was just addressing this with Blakey. With fenders and proper chainrings it’d be a perfect all-day road bike. Maybe I just don’t like the cranks.

I’m very into that aesthetically

the crank is divisive and I don’t personally care for the peugeot livery even if it’s well done
I want to ride the bike though

Yeah, I feel like this too.
If it’s somehow lighter and or more compliant because smaller tubes, I’m into it but if it’s just adding weight to be novel, f it

direct mount only? guess I’ll stop dreaming about them then…
They’re brakes that require a custom frame built around them, of course they’re the stuff of dreams

True. I already have the custom frame, just not the custom direct-mount mounts. Oh well. Like I could even get the brakes anyway.
It’s fine! I’m fine!
the gravel eeBrakes will be $300 each/$600 per bike

yes fine ok i’ll take one.
that thing is such a good type of strange
also, are those forks bi-lam?
also are those the belgiums where it is basically the disc rim but someone machined it down? i got a pair from them 10 years ago and they didn’t last long but were great while they lasted before i wore the “brake track” down
I actually like that English unlike most of them. No idea why. Maybe I dgaf anymore.
It’s probably the truss fork
