How are you going to get rid of your dead ender bikes if you don’t buy some first?
oof that’s my size too
but i just sold my rim brake cx bike
I had an alphaQ CX fork and it was so juddery, even with mini vees.
Swapped out for an enve and massively improved.
last gen steel stumpjumpy. one of these in 16" was my first mtb like 25 years ago, too bad i hate how old mtbs ride on the road.
I’ve been eyeing this full-crabon CX rim braker for a few days now. It has hidden fender mounts too!
Fork mount cable hanger is key!
I tried that first!

uncharted colorway territory
I love it and for 250 it’s a decent deal
That is something straight out of Quicksilver.
Vanilla-ish. Is that a fucking Salsa drop out? Fake
Sascha hasn’t been building bikes for a while. That’s probably one of the frames built by his outsourced builders.
Check out sourdoughbicycleco on the Graham.
That bike has a 2002 build date painted on it with Sacha’s signature
Are people really making counterfeit boutique bike frames? The amount of effort and money that went into that thing can’t be worth the 1.8 bongs. And then they put that horrendous build on it?
And yet:
Edit: I guess it’s just the bars and saddle angle that are horrible.
I’m pretty sure you could buy those dropouts from QBP back then
Surly sold frame parts as recently as the 2010s but I couldn’t find salsa stuff on the internet archive. It’s not a Salsa Primero though (their s3 bike), the chainstay is differently shaped
Damn the internet was so different in the 2010s. A simpler time without all the cookie warnings
no, they were all this fucking ugly the whole time!
he was in love with those oversized oval “fork blades as chainstays” from Columbus that almost nobody else used
Yeah this is an amazing case of looking at something without the hype.
