So, this happened.
is there a reason those levers are so derpy looking?
angle is fucked

i put together a stupid carbon bike (and then rode a couple hours in the rain):
Coz Brompton. These levers are way superior to the noodly ones they used to spec.

Stock setup. You can only angle them so much before it starts fucking with the fold.
I’m sure I could get away with a little more, but honestly it feels fine.

Fark. I have been trying to talk myself OUT of putting ENVE rims on IF #1… you are not helping.

if i ever aluminum bike, it will be a purple spooky omgggggwerwersdfasdf
^ isn’t Spooky out of the bike game or am I mistaken? I sure as hell would love to have a purple bike too.
andrew, it looks like you might be bogarting the setback in the relationship
Spooky still around last I spoke to him.
That English is cool looking.
They’re still going afaik but it’s custom only now, no stock framesets.
re: English
Curious, looks like a pretty weight weenie build. Why not a carbon fork?
An Enve carbon fork would have required a big headtube to fit the tapered steerer, which by Rob’s calculation would have eliminated almost all of the weight savings.
I am also really abusive to my bikes, so I just feel better on a steel fork.
