I’ve already put too much effort into this shitty thing.

But maybe hell copy it but with dick brakes and an oversized downtube.

I’ve got a cool Holdsworth frame only you might be interested in? I think it’s 531 but might be a hair small. I’ll measure and send u pics this weekend.

What low-trail thing is this? you should be able to move the fork to a different frame right, keeping the low-trail-ness intact?

Please tell me this is a rawland

I think it’s a Peugeot pulled from the recycling pile?

1 year of storing my bike outdoors by the ocean, nearly 24/7 (aside from when i commute and store it in the office)



I think I need to either rebuild the wheels and replace the alu/crabon fork or decommission the whole thing

Apparently we have a hole in the Ozone layer directly above NZ. We always dicing with Straya for most melanoma. Also, red is the worst colour. I don’t know why.

This is still the shop life thread, right?

i had high hopes for the shop next door to the new apt. but i brought my bike over to see if they had a front rack for it and the guy just stared at me, stared at all the racks, then grabbed very clearly a rear rack and sort of tried to shove it at my front wheel a few times then gave up

I even said, “Soma makes a rack called the Lucas that I think will work.” No response. No offer to order.
