Hi I’m Andrew, I’ve been lurkin’ :wave:

Submitting for criticism. Let me kick things off:

  • It’s a stock Tiagra Straggler
  • Bars are wrapped in electrical tape because I’ve been too lazy to put something proper on
  • Rear fender is misaligned because I’ve been running the wheel all the way back in these horrible dropouts for a few weeks
  • Rotors don’t match

In all honestly it’s been a fine bike, but it’s probably best described as plodding. I’m thinking about building up a Black Mtn. Road plus or something similar to replace it soon.

Didn’t it come with real bar tape? What happened?

Well the electrical tape is kind of a red flag. Everything okay?

Ha, it did. I’ve had this bike for a few years, the squishy tape the original owner put on was getting torn up and the electrical tape is a “temporary fix” that’s a few months old now.

What kind of electrical tape is the question. Super 88 or gtfo.
