so how about that rawland ravn?

Yeah that’s what I mean. I can only kinda think they meant to do that? Some weird bags or something? Maybe some dumb idea?

Probably cocked up the positioning of the rack bolt holes on the fork and that’s the only way they could get it to fit…

Is that a Campy RD on the Firefly? And cable discs, really? Makes sense if they’re running Campy.

I don’t see any structural cock up; it’s just on backwards.

(TC: actually looks like a really fun bike. Would ride)

Soma poster a bunch of pictures of the Ravn proto yesterday, but fitted with 700c skinny’s. Struck me as a very strange way to promo your 26" road bike.

Forgetting the shit show that was the development of this bike, I think it looks great.

but i guess Soma aren’t selling the frame… and they don’t have any 26x2" tyres, but they do have skiny 700c?

yeah, frame looks alright, reckon lots of people will 650bx42mm it?

Firefly gonna firefly. Got to screw something up.

just amazed that it made it to the final pro photo shoot like that. It’s so obviously wrong.

God damn it Firefly :\

It’s the best looking 26" wheel canti-braked allroadendurobro machine ever.

It’s got discs mate

Read through this whole thread last night cause I wanted to find a link for something. Whole thread is a peleton of lolz.

You should see the google group. Really puts the clusterfuck in clusterfuck.

Probably my fav thread on foa

It’s back now that they’ve fixed it and reshot it.

That DT barrel adjuster looks well used already. Surely someone could have loosened it off and tightened the cable for a fresh build?
