haha yea i commented "cool" on that video. Not a bad idea to clamp the post like that tho..

I like how he tries to loosen the vice the wrong way afterwards :)

cheeeeers! such a fun daily

Hah i didnt know that was one of his things! Seems smart, but i cant imagine i have anything layin around that fits the job.. I tried banging it super hard with a hammer from the top down, just to get a bit of movement in it. Nothing.

chill thread. just found it. following :)

i like step 3: Click the button.

@Sig_Arlecchino Speaking of GT's

Just cleaned mine, and drilled new holes in the cetma to make it a little more flat.

I say go for it!

Yea that thing is fuckin sweet

Yea stuck bike parts are the worst! Not sure im too into the soda stuff either..

Det hedder en bajonetsav :)

Luckily none that are fucked. With out knowing for sure, i feel like Ti is a bit more brittle and prone to snapping than steel, but not as bad as alu. Good to hear u've had success with adjusting alu though!

Word. Its the small things that count.

Anyone tried it on Titanium? I wonder if its as easy..

Not yet. I bolted the vice to the table and it works a charm for direct clamping, but it just seems the side to side wrenching caused by twisting the frame with the post clamped isnt what a vice is best at. There is quite a lot of room for the jaws to slide from side to side, if that makes sense..

I think next step is using a reciprocating saw down into the post, and chiseling it out bit by bit

Very industrial, but at the same time kinda earthy. I like it!

@vp1337 @platypus cheers should be there now

@enghoff came to the rescue again! This time with a no fuckin bullshit version! Third time's the charm..

It's a hand me down from his Grandpa, so much love for lending it to me. He even took photos! <3

It weighs 45 kg. There has never been so much lag between steering my front wheel and the cetma rack. Felt sort of like driving an oil tanker on a slack line.

Now i just need to find a good spot for it in the workshop. Considering making it removable, because it takes up a lot of space..

hanger still needed a fair bit of adjustment in all directions. Now 100% true!

That thing is sick!
doesnt it feel long with a 60cm+(?) toptube and a 130 stem!?
What frame is it btw, just noticed the headtube looks like 1-1/8"

Das nice. Keep em coming, your slowly convincing me to go SS

yessss

seattube decals reminded me of thickslick

Love seeing the many different iterations of this build. Gummies and purp is nice

<3 fave stem

Yea idono. I think it makes sense when it comes to rider height, terrain, weight, style of riding, etc. That goes for all wheel sizes tho. But i agree for a XC mtb for a big guy at 6'6, 29" makes a lot of sense. Id love to see a picture of your swift at some point @tallsam Presumably an XL?

Heres mine (also one of the first models)
