my comeback bike

mate I just did an alley cat on a B43 rear and a stupid Reynolds carbon front wheel and it was fucking awesome and you need to embrace the here and now #livingthedream

The kids refer to this as LIT AF I believe

Not trying to break anyone’s heart, but here are two examples of bikes that would look 1000000 better with matching wheels.

Do whatever you want though, I’m sure I do things you don’t agree with.

^ man…tough crowd!

Ok, for the record I do like matching wheels, I just don’t like those massive silver brake walls on the back wheel especially.

This is my old bike…matching wheels…but looked infinitely better…

the FOA smiley options need updating fire emoji

Think I rode past you this afternoon in Pyrmont eh. Cool.

Cool! Next time call out…I can use the stop and rest…ahem, I mean chat.

You told me you quit bikes.

no gears. no rack. what is this shit?

Reckon that curved seat tube would handle a 650 x 42 with a rear-wheel dynamo?

The headtube angle looks pretty steep. Perfect for a high rake fork, to get that low trail for maximum front loading.

potentially, but i think there would other issues due different wheel size…not sure what they are but, i just dont think you could chuck them on and ride off without more adjustments.

Might drop your rear axle a couple of mm’s, but as you’ve got a front brake, a rear lining up on the brake track correctly isn’t an issue.
