Hi Guys
There was alot of talk recently about Softrides…
I found one in the Next door Neighbours Garage and have bought it off him…
Anyone know much about them… Full carbon fibre Pretty sure its a Zipp but not sure on model…
150mm rear spacing
How I found it
Newish Campy Cranks, Dura Ace F & R Deraileurs and 600 tricolour sti’s and theSpinergy rear wheel…
After a clean
Front wheel was a bit shit so i wacked on my open pro laced to AC hub…
This is the coolest thing I’ve ever seen.
I want it.

Nice!! There were a few different models of Softrides… Check their site! This one does look very very similar to those zipp bikes however I think the beam is different on the zipp’s. Still very cool!

Yeah 150mm
The Spinergy has a one piece spacer on the non drive side…
Whats the best way to Fix the rear??
Surly Fixer?
Will use this for the Bridges of Brissy alley for a Laugh I think
This is weird shit, looks like a zipp 2001 frame with a softride beam attached…
