The rear looks ok but the front needs 95 deg anti clockwise.

Re:

Open to debate.

I set most of mine up roadie style these days, with the lever pointing towards the back of the bike.

Discuss.

Thanks. The metal flake lacquer is lovely in the flesh.

Indeed, but bisecting stays could take a whack from a passing branch / rock / rambler, and loosen the wheel.

Front depends on the fork, as with Pace forks fitted, 'up the leg' (phnar) is sometimes the only option.

Re:

Looks very tidy. Wish we had more Oranges over here. Have never seen one in person to be honest. They look to be a well made steed, indeed. Always a top notch build from you.

Hmmmmmm just been out. The issue is much as I thought. Bar height.

Would really like to keep the yellow forks so solution is a 130+ 40 deg stem. Found 130 one on eBay. But will look to see how long they go. Current stem 85.

Gone with the 130 40deg silver.
