Black Paul Components hanger + VO shim. Functional and looks good.
You’re never going to give (me) up on trying to get me to buy a boring Giant, etc are you? I have a great steel CX frame, parts on the way to make it even better and at a great price, and you want me to go drop $1k (that I don’t have) on a bike that I don’t like?
Yeah, I reckon this is the way to go.
Nope.
Wait, why would you buy a Paul hanger and a shim when you could a) buy a Paul that clamps directly to the quill stem or b) save money and buy a Giant, I mean, any old black alloy steerer hanger.
To take the piss.
Acceptable course of action.
I kind of forgot that they made a 1" clamp on hanger.
You can have the hanger I got from Blakey if you want, nothing special but it works. Then you are a shim away from being able to use it.
EDIT: Never mind, it isn’t clamp on. Buy a TCX.
But seriously, I’ll either get the Paul one that clamps onto the stem for $50, or get a shim and get a cheaper one that is 1 1/8" and run that.
And then I’ll sacrifice the bike to the steel gods and buy a Crux with disc brakes.
jesus fucking christ get the $7.00 one and fucking paint it black
Your opinion is null and void.
i just saved you $43 and another pointless thread
Why? Zoltan likes doing things the hard way ![]()
Buy the Giant and be done !!!
This thread has become big, Giant in fact.
Especially noteworthy when a Giant amongst men chimes in.
my first ‘fixed for you’ post ever
appropriate on a FIXIE forum
cable hanger questions are the new slipped sprocket/chainline question.
the new how to remove campy cranks question
FUCK CABLE HANGERS

Not really, I enquired if someone made the hanger, and they do.
Wait, why are you on here again?
