You’re allowed to do this. And I’m watching the Salsa intently.
oh you were indeed! It takes 650bs.
Want a pair of 650b aerohead 28h wheels, built on ultegra hubs, Comp spokes, alloy nipples, rear spaced to 135, comes with grand bois cypres tyres, < 1000km use?
edit: it takes 650bs with long reach brakes. It’s designed for 700c. Panic over?
WHAAA! 650B conversion you say? I had other plans for it but I’m PMing you right now!
…and it is a win for blakey!
What’s the plan?
Plan A was 8sp hubgear, STI levers, dyno front wheel, fenders. All weather geared bike.
Plan B is 650B, 2x9 or 2x10, fenders, fast rando style.
another bike? dont you have 2 frames waiting build up already?
I know, he’s on fire ATM!
3 actually.
I bid, I won, surprise!
650B wheels, double surprise!!
Double rainbow!!
Go Blakey! Ok time to pick up my game…
Bring it!
I’ll have the Hetchins / Concorde rolling in the next few weeks hopefully. Still sourcing a few little bits.
Oh me, oh my, look what arrived today:
Mint 6400STI group, good used 7700 hubset, new seatpost.
DOLZ… (drool out loud)
If you need lessons in shipping a bike, tomacropod is Yoda.
I just received a box via AusPost with a frame, fork and two wheels with tyres. Posted for $16.90.
Much better looking though, and the kid knows it all
And judging from the frame size, significantly taller.
