i can see repost from page 21.

fix'd

18 months an they made a Vig. WTF.

the vig doesn't have a straight top tube and a tapered head tube

They also have completely different geometry

e. atleast the old mash had, dunno bout the new one tho

Had to make something for those wet and cold seasons of scandinavia:

Need to change grips and cut steerer (also gonna get compact drop bars next summer so it'll make perfect ss-tourer).
edit: already changed saddle angle abit

Oh, that sucks. But thanks for the info, was thinking of getting one myself ;)

just think about to order a superb but if i sum up everything its 730 - 750 Euro and i could get a Cinelli Bolt for 799 Euro so dont really know what to do

I'd have a Superb like a shot, pretty decent 'Dale copy, was trolling a little. But they ain't cheap. Pays your money, takes your choice

Or you could get the same thing with different decals for 400 euros from goldsprint.

A logo free red frame which decent black compenents would be so nicee. Must resist. Sorry, just thinking out loud here.

Yeah, trying not to press the button here...Already had one, would be totally dumb to get another but but but....

Does that £40 include inner tubes? If not, you can get pair of gatorskins just under 40 from ebay.

Previous was Michel Strogoff by Jules Verne (which was btw one of the best books i've ever read), now reading The Sixth Man by David Baldacci.

Only seems to be a potatochop, theres more of that bike in next 5 pages...still turned out nice tho (not sure if paint porn-worthy):

Watching all those beauties I ask myself: Does fixed CX make any sense?

No. But does it even have to?

Anyone ever had dealings with Factory Five in Shanghai? Their frames look hot and they come in little peoples size.

www.wearefactoryfive.com

I've heard those frames come from same manufacturer than colossi/superb. Been thinking of getting that F5100, but haven't decided yet (also poor student, no extra money atm).

Cheers for the advice Indra. I'll definitely check out varno's thread.

Any other recommendations? Has anyone tried the halo aerotrack/aerorage or mavic ellipses?

I can definately recommend aerorage/track, they just dont break or get out of true. Only bad side of them is that they are hard to get sometimes, they are almost always sold out from every place. (i think wiggle has some in stock atm)

In no particular order:

Santa Cruz nomad crabon

Cervelo R5

Mercian Vincitore

Bilenky Chuckwagon

And something like this from sizemore

Didn't notice if this was already here: http://www.rosebikes.co.uk/article/xtreme-frame-bag-easybag-xl-635691/aid:635693 cheap as chips, and it takes a nice amount of stuff.

Gotta say i really liked my pre cursa. If the geometry is right for you, go for it

^^ anyone know what the front rack is?

It looks like this: http://www.cyclestore.co.uk/productDetails.asp?productID=53752

Good point, i just assumed he was gonna buy a new set

Miche primato pista is JIS nowadays, so that means you can get something like un-55 and it'll last forever. Miche bb's are shite

From 3 bikes to one:

(currently with front brake and risers)
Has room for stutted tyres and fenders for our cold scandinavian winters, has rack mounts and all that jazz.

Le face:

Surprise surprise, my frame came with a hanger. In follow up emails I've been informed (as I suspected) that just the small frame comes with the hanger.

On-one doesn't seem to know their bikes very well then :p Had (dremeled it off) hanger in mine, which is M size. Also, a friend has L frame, which also has one.

E: oh rite, we both have older models, so that could be it...

Almost done, gonna change bars to some compact drops and install fenders + make front rack.

summer 45x17
winter 39x19

Finnish winters are mean, have to take things slowly :D

The black one is almost exactly the weight of a Pre Cursa, and a MASH bolt is 2050g

Bolt's weight is with a fork.

My vote goes for pomp or cross-check. Love 'em both.

They actually do exist:
