evernu 
on21st and 8th by greenwood cemetery 
sand blast and powder coat $350
which is $100 more than last time🥲
but I didn’t ask before I dropped off

I only have one eyelet on my front fork and my question is: can you put a fender and a rack on the same eyelet? Sweet ride. Second question is why Bielsa? Leeds? Marseille? Chile?

LEEDS LEEDS LEEDS!
yes , the rack and fenders use the same eyelet

What a ride.

Part of the grand plan.

As always, a massive pleasure to work with the Redbeard crew.

We're back - new bike day! See you guys tomorrow morning
Edit: Pedals didn't come until this morning so I couldn't come to the look sharp :'(

Murder-wagon! Now you only need a black chain to complete the look...

@Jules haha ughh I hate the all black - Getting it painted this winter

white chain?

Finally wrapped up my parts bin/eBay CX bike build. It's a 2003 LeMond Poprad made of Reynolds 853 steel. The maiden voyage was on the Erie Canal towpath nearby my parent's place in Buffalo.

I picked up the frame on eBay about 1 year ago and built it up with eBay finds and parts that came off my LeMond Tourmalet when I updated that bike's groupset to Shimano 105 r7000. This bike was originally 8 speed Shimano Sora 3300 (52/39T & 13-26)

48/36 Shimano crank from eBay
11-36 10 speed cassette
10 speed Sram Rival shifters
Sram GX rear derailleur, stock Shimano Sora 3300 front derailleur
Handlebar, stem, seat, wheels (wrapped in 700x35 Continental CX tires) came off my LeMond Tourmalet
Stock Avid Shorty 4 brakes but using an origin8 fork mount cable hanger which has helped with the noise
I ran the rear brake cable entirely in the housing so I can easily mount a frame bag or a top tube bag for any touring trips

AFTER (excuse the SPD-SL pedals)

FIRAH!!

I’ve been thinking about getting a Canyon Ultimate CF for no other reason than to have a second bike to mix things up. I love the versatility of my Giant TCR and the Canyon Ultimate seems to be designed to fill a similar use case. 

I got my son's Fuji built up and he took it on its maiden voyage today


While you can't tell from the image, the cranks were actually a big project

Awesome. Are those hoops 700 or 650?

700c.  Mavic Aksiums. It's nominally a 46cm frame. 105 10-speed shifting--was planning on going cheaper, but it turned out lightly used STI was about $10 more expensive than new Microshift and I ran out of time in terms of looking for better deals.  The cranks are Shimano Claris.

Ok, here is some pre-blizzard bike porn: I present to you, Stiggy Stardust.  New to me 2020 version, SRAM etap AXS, 1x Eagle mullet set up drive train, 650b wheels, Santa Cruz Stigmata.  Since getting Stiggy, I put on the Rene Herse 47 tires, installed a dropper post (you can see the button in the drops), Easton bars with 16 degree flare, and other cosmetic changes such as bar cap and tape.  Topping scales at 18lbs, 12 oz.

I know, I should have just bought a mountain bike, but can't help myself.  

   

Wow

That is the fire. Damn yo.

Beautiful bike; the off center computer gives me hives though.

New bike day!!! (from a few days ago...

paint job hotness!
