1994 orange clockwork at 9.46kg

[ddidds]

i can somehow understand the disliking of the gold, but it looks much better in real life.

the saddle , although very hard, is paradoxically very comfortable , it was a surprise for me to like it

the forks are absolutely inferior to pace and judy, but they have two strength points, they are much lighter and they feel better in corners. i think because of the parallelogram technology they are stiffer when cornering

it's my first project and i learned a lot during the process, my goal was to somehow mix the good of the retro tech with the good of the modern tech and although i like this bike, i must say that the proshift derailleurs are quite shitty and that the kcnc brakes really suck (conparing both of them with previously owned xtr groupset). i also read bad reviews about the spinergy carbon wheels braking into pieces at 40km/h

so, i spent and learned a lot with this project and in the future i probably won't try to mix the old with the new, but because of the effort put in this one , i am still like it a lot.

Original! It looks like a show bike from the big trade shows in the late '90s.

I bet it gets a few looks (and I bet you never leave it locked up either!!!!)

Then why on earth do you have that Orange frame and Spinergys? 9,46kg is pretty heavy with lightweight parts like Tune.

as i said before, i really like the clockwork. i think it is a sensational frame, it's very fine , all the tubing is slim and looks absolutely great !

the spinergys i bought only because since i was a child i had this fascination about 3 or 4 spoked wheels. i had a set of inferno by hugi before these, i just love the way the look!
