2023 Subscriptions P McDonald Posted April 10, 2016 2023 Subscriptions Report Share Posted April 10, 2016 Chungster, That is truly beautiful, you are a man of exquisite taste, However, brake and gear cables, look about 17mm too long, far too much wind resistance. And Billy is right , stem is a bit embarrassing with the unslammed spacer. Valve length, well I am sure you could get away with one size down saving a monumental 2g or so. Bar tape, hmmmm sorry just call me old school, but it is kinDA shiny Other than that, pure poetry, And very very jealous âœ”ï¸ chung 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2023 Subscriptions Gerard Deeley Posted April 10, 2016 2023 Subscriptions Report Share Posted April 10, 2016 Sticking bar tape on your gloves instead of the bars will save weight. Top tip. George and James Esus 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
