What top pull front mech did you use?
Shimano CX70.
Shimano CX70.
What on earth are you planning to ride up on a 22/32 gear?
Its a set up I've got on my old bike and is perfect for here, S Wales valleys with some very steep lanes and tracks.
What on earth are you planning to ride up on a 22/32 gear?
The fearsome North Face of the Spacer Stack.
The spacers give a better bar height and looked better that a higher angle stem - wanted the same feel as my drop bar mtb - nicer for off road stuff.
Composition in 1st pic could be better - front wheel overlapping pebbledash and stone wall.
I really am splitting hairs.....
FAB-U-LOUS!!!
Beautiful!
You went for a bar height and gearing to suite your own requirement....
Shakes head and mutters
Thats not how we do things here
๐
Have you used the Clements before? I had the 32c LGG's on the commute. Split 3 of them in under 500 miles (I may have taken one set slightly off-road......)
Look forward to hearing they're ok ๐
Spacertastic!!
No bottle cage?
Almost looks like its missing a cable stop for the rear mech routing leaving quite a large loop of cable.
Otherwise tidy looking
Nice Nipper.
Very nice.
