Hey all,
Currently in the process of picking up a Inbred 853 26 with vertical dropouts, with plans of running a 650b drop bar build. What kind of clearance can I expect? I'm hoping to run a 2/2.1 tire. Have seen some mixed opinions online about what fits.

Thanks for the replies. I had no idea it was that new, I'd just come across it browsing for a new frame. I've been riding my Jobs Private Jake as a gravel bike, but the frame is a size too small and I'd like some more versatility. Even with the exchange rate to Canadian and some shipping costs it seems like a fair bargain for a 725 Reynolds frame with a carbon fork.

Anyone have some saddle time on a Mehteh? Mind sharing your thoughts?

Any updates on the earlier post if they plan on releasing a v5 Pomp?

As title says, looking for a large size On One Pompino frame and fork or equivalent. Must be willing to ship to Canada. Got a bunch of spares I want to use and this seems like the best idea.

If anyone's got a large frame and fork they're interested in shipping to Canada, PM me.

Do you know the frame angles?

Are you running any sort of chain guide or keeper?

I think Sun Ringle still makes the Rhynolite in a welded version.

I've got them working pretty well now. Only issue with the set up is the cable hanger , but that's a minor issue right now.

Cut them with a knife instead, doesnt leave them sharp.

Yeah, problem is I've never worked with cantis, I managed to get the front setup well but couldn't get the rear. Will probably stop by a shop tomorrow and have them do it for peace of mind.

Any recommendations for v-brakes? The only reason I'm debating keeping the cantis is that I'd have more clearance for fenders.

Excuse the quality of the pic.

Daily/commuter build.
Picked this up locally, stickers tell me it's an Onza Billy Comp. Tange Prestige tubing, Deore DX everywhere, besides seatpost which is XT. It's currently a 1x7 setup, using the front derailleur as a chain guide until I get something else, maybe a Paul chainkeeper.
The owner bought the Conti's this spring, so they're still in great shape. He also threw on some new Kool Stop pads, but did not bother setting them up properly as he was already riding his new bike. I have a fork mounted cable stop/guide coming, but I'm debating swapping to some v-brakes, possible mini-v brakes.

When I got the bike I threw on the Flite saddle, but that still needs to be adjusted. I also put on some Eclat plastic flat pedals, but they're very worn, so I might grab something else. besides that I'm going to change the stem to something longer and lower as I feel very upright on this bike.

What are the wheels?

I'm wanting to put back on the original front wheel on my old Bianchi road bike that I use as a commuter, but am worried about having the front wheel stolen. Any recommendations on what to replace the qr skewers with?

Anybody?

Hey forumers,

I'm after a CRC voucher, I'm from Canada and looking to pick up a Vitus Sentier complete, so I was hoping to find a coupon that will help me offset some of the shipping cost.

Cheers

That. Wish my young self would have invested in quality instead of a cheap set.

not sure if this is the place to ask, but does anyone know where I can find a fender bracket such as the one PDW uses for their fenders?

Not as nice as some whips here, but it's my one do-all bike. Need to swap to some slicker tires, debating b/w Gators, Paselas or something else, I want to squeeze in some 32s I found on kijiji if they fit. Also need to properly adjust the fenders andget a front brake, as well as possibly throw a freewheel on as well. If I can sell the frame, I'm hoping to move to a Pompino with some bigger tires.

edit: I also want to change the cranks to some S300's, and better pedal straps.

No but that sounds like something you should do right now and report back to us.

Anyone selling a large pompino f+f and willing to ship across the atlantic let me know.

^Makes me want a geared beater!

it makes me want to hurry up with my beater build.

Already planning it haha. If I can move my Eastside frameset, then there's no reason not to buy a pomp.
