New page photo. :-)

Is that the original Chris King base plate/crown race?
Looks like the high stack/tall version...
Or is that the bearing sticking out of the cup?

Regarding the freehub body I would contact this guy:

Jenny Christian is a former engineer at Tune and has his own eBay shop selling all sorts of cool Tune parts.

Are you going to show us said picture? ;-)

I'm usually not a Mash fanboy but that looks insanely good.
Do you have a link/source for the build?

Good to hear that surgery went well! Wish you all the best for a speedy recovery.
I really hope that you'll be back on your feet soon and can try to sort out all the other stuff afterwards! As mentioned multiple times, I'm sure things will get better going forward. ;-)

RIP Ken Block!

Just noticed the logo on the seat tube of the Mulo frameset. :D

I guess we are all "influencers" now.

Dave Rome recently did a podcast with Chris Heershap all about 3D printing.
In the end Chris gave some recommendations for printers iirc.

Great update and good vibes all around! Bike is (still) looking excellent. :-)

Goldsprint (German shop) do their own version of the Nitto UI-25 stem:
https://www.goldsprintshop.com/Goldsprint-Ultimate-CNC-Vorbau-318-mm
From looking at the pictures, they both seem identical.

Only issue will be shipping and taxes.
Could still end up being only slightly more expensive than Freshtripe, etc.

Going to give this a try. Thanks for the recommendation. :-)

I've been enjoying Jordan Kleppers's deep dives into some the most absurd conspiracy theories out there.

Love that!

I think Ergotec are onto something!

Gravel being seen as an extension of "urban adventure".

I guess it's time to fully embrace the flat bar/flat pedal hybrids. ;-)

Origin8 and Veloci both make a purple headset similar in shape to a Chris King.

Yes! I'm always super excited when I see one of his video in my subscriptions feed.
But to get 12 new videos for December... a very unexpected surprise. ;-)

Looks great! Any more info about that one?

Thanks for the recommendation.
Just ordered a pair. I hope they are a little warmer than my Giro Xnetic H2Os.
I've been really happy with those so far but with the temperature dropping to zero or below, my fingers start to get a little too cold. :-(

Anybody tried out these yet?

If you look at their instruction manual, it shows the wave washer inside the non drive side bb cup behind the bearing.

As tester said already the spindle is captured on the non drive side so I'm not sure it's such a good idea to have the non drive side bearing "floating" inside the cup.
I can't really wrap my head around what they are/were thinking with that design.

Thanks. :-)
Only 26 x 2.3" unfortunately. I'm looking for the 2.15" version.

Looks sick! Where did you find the OEM version (white logos) Maxxis tires?

61 Fox
62 Klar
63 ojwithbits
64 ruserius
65 disq
66 ThorntonReed

That looks so wild! Are those last three photos showing the finished wheel with final tension?
Or just laced up? I'm wondering if the small kinks in the spokes will straighten out with more tension?

What's silver fork on the orange bike? That head tube to fork transition is spot on. ;-)

Just came across this new (to me) idea/way of attaching a frame bag that should prevent almost any movement and give a lot of extra rigidity to the bag itself.

You've probably seen this before but I thought it would be cool to share anyway. :-)
Maybe something to incorporate into your future frame builds together with @Tijmen?

Edit: the timestamp doesn't seem to work in the embedded video.
Just click the link or skip to 0:50 min in the video.

Freewheels are the gateway drug to derailleurs.
