Luke Rainbird Posted December 28, 2017 Report Share Posted December 28, 2017 Beauty, nice one dude. How's the clearance with the 'burns? Have been considering popping a set on mine but have heard mixed reviews. With a higher bar/stem that looks like a whole heap of fun Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ross McArthur Posted December 28, 2017 Report Share Posted December 28, 2017 Now that's stem! Looks like there's a bita droop in the chain. Any chance of a link or two being taken out? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Herbertlemon102 Posted December 29, 2017 Report Share Posted December 29, 2017 it was perfect on my setup, which ive forgotten. i do apologise for that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paperclip Posted December 31, 2017 Report Share Posted December 31, 2017 I started the dropout filing craze. I might have owned this frame previously as I had two hex's in the past. Just got a third this week. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
