You done good p1nz0.
Thanks all. Can’t tell you how good it feels to get this thing rolling.
Ace, decent photoshoot comin? That background does the bike no favours!
^ Ha ha. It’s to distract you from all the mistakes!
I was trying to tee up a mate who knows how to wield a camera, but between shit weather and family commitments I just ran out and took my own.
That stem clamp bolt really makes it, don’t you think?
A++, knowing how much mental energy into this makes it even more awesome.
Congrats Pinzo, this looks excellent.
I am building something similar ATM (albeit not that awesome/classy) so I’m taking some inspiration. That rear brake bridge is my fave frame detail I think.
Looks fast too. How does it ride?
^ Thanks mate. Yeah it rides beautifully - I wasn’t expecting much of a difference from the old setup, but it certainly feels a lot smoother.
Still have to dial in a few things, but I’ve been a bit lazy as the weather has been shit. Only rode it to work and back once!
Those Ergopowers are going to take a bit of getting used to! Plus I set it up Euro braking to further confuse me. I’m a bit worried the right lever might need a rebuild as I could get it out of gear when I pulled the cable, but I need to do a proper investigation.
SJ: Apparently the fork could well be Columbus Air. Which is interesting because as far as I’m aware Pinarello didn’t do any production Columbus Air frames, and most of the ones I can find didn’t have a fork like mine. Come on.
