That’s so Richard Sachs
and yet I hate myself for loving it
Just spent $10k on a basket bike
needs a safety pizza
Sweet hybrid but no eyelets (nor bottle bosses??) is a bit meh.
Tire hot patch not lined up with valve stem(but clearly intentionally placed, maybe it looks OK this way but I don’t make the rules), back rim has logo sticker but front doesn’t, cable donuts could be better spaced out.
I do like how the larger cogs being black helps them visually disappear a bit.
Just needs a disc low trail fork and track ends
Same.
No bottle bosses is bad ass.
why the fuck would you put those letters in that order in 2026?
Small cassette stolen valor
don’t hit it with a hammer
I used to do the hot patch opposite the stem sometimes too. Kinda like it actually.
Also, canti brakes on a bike in 2026? Related, I don’t think I’ve ever seen the housing for the rear one routed on the drive side…
Re: donuts, how many are you supposed to have on the top tube cable traditionally? I have 3 right now and it doesn’t seem excessive but my gut tells me it might be.
I’ve always used three. Two to ensure the cable’s entrance/exit from the housing is smooth and hold it away from the frame, then one in the middle to primarily stop the rattling.
My favorite cable donut is a full run of housing
HATMO boys keep cantis on the ride
randy ass tires with the almond milk inside
I rawdog
you guys use cables?
