Very chunky, very comfortable, an absolute pain to get on.

Stem wise it was between this and getting the velo orange quill stem with the removable face plate but I'm quite happy so far.

Peak functional.

Best place to order fabric/hardware online?

Becoming functional.

I've had Bikmo for a few years now, bought a 2nd hand Cinelli then had it stolen a few weeks later ffs. I have cover for upto 3k, which covers all my bikes, so I could then claim full retail to replace it.

I was surprised how quickly they handled my claim and wouldn't hesitate to recommend.

Checkout the Retrobike forum, you'll probably find og klein part for sale.

You should be able to use the serial number on the frame to identify the year.

Almost there? Re-cabled the bike, got out bidded on eBay for a 26.6 Thomson post so will have to figure something else out, talking to a chap about an NOS deore post which might look good.

Also can't decide on which Brooks to go for, cambium or leather.

;)

Table tops are my fav, quite a bit of rolling resistance though. I'd recommend Maxxis DTH if you want slicks, also come in tan wall ;)

I'll be ordering some Maxxis, and will be putting the halos on the muddy fox for hitting the forest.

ESI grips installed, pelago rack ordered, will allow me to put the wald basket in the basement to good use.

Hahaha. Just re read that post... Cheers, build is coming along nicely, and I've promised the other half its the "one" but might have to get disc tabs added for that to be true.

Measuring the top tube diameter puts me into the middle of the two biggest clamp sizes. I may order the biggest just to test, thanks for the links!

Geoff bars installed, ESI grips in the post, need to re-cable the bike as they are a tad too tight. The goose stem is actually growing on me but not sure I trust it on the threadless adapter, it's probably fine but I'm a heavy rider...

Selling my Rockhopper means I've got some spare cash to throw on the bike so may order a VO stem to replace.

The flite saddle is horrendous for me so looking to buy a Brooks, can't decide on b17 or c17.

Wonderful, liaising with a local bike shop to get them ordered :)

Shipping directly from Rene is eye watering.

Fitted and took it out for a spin... Surprisingly it put me in a really comfortable position.

Actually don't mind how it looks!

The only thing I'm uncertain of is trusting the stem on the threadless adapter.

Happy enough to re-cable the bike now.

Very specific but does anyone have one of the Velo Orange quill stems with removable faceplate? Thought I'd ask before ordering new!

Ordered. Also a goose neck stem... Will probably look ridiculous.

Replaced this with a bolt, much better, can't get over how ugly it looked.

Also have some nice bits planned...

Frame is fantastic, you can even squeeze 28c tyres in... Would prefer it on the roads instead of in my basement.

I blame instagram.

Alright you've convinced me, superlight or standard?

Any idea on the saddle? V clean.

Any recommendations for a single speed freehub cog that isn't surly?
