Thought I would share some pics of my recently acquired Clark Kent F12.
I think this one has been owned before by at least one fellow Retrobiker, but it came to me in a pristine condition, almost unused :shock:
The objective was to build a reliable and as classic as possible so first test included Mag21s and Syncros kit.
But unfortunately Mag21s are not effective enough for what I was thinking.
So I decided to test some Manitou R7 80mm, but due to the short steerer and the high stack height of the Syncros stem I had to try and find another smaller stem. So I went Ringlé on the stem and seatpost.
I also replaced red Chris King headset by a Cane Creek S8.
This is the current setup and I think I have found what I was looking for in this build.
