Hey Tintin

You trying to outpost everyone else on a single topic

How about summarising all your dislikes into one one post as I’ve lost track about six pages back


I think of different ones each day. You don't have all your birthdays at once? :LOL:

Oh and tires over 2''


Fair enough, but your starting to sound like Victor Meldrew :LOL:

The spoke protector missing....

Missing from the list or missing from a "gorgeous retrobike".... ;-)

If a spoke protector is on a "gorgeous retrobike" we have no hope for humanity. The two things cannot fuse together, even if CERN tried for 30 years. If by a freak of nature or spatial dynamic circumstance such a thing presents itself, Trump can do us all a favour and drop the bomb.

Re:

How have I been missing out on this glorious thread for so long?!

Guilty of so many of these :LOL:

Quill to ahead adaptors for me, worst case being skinny steel frames, 1" steerer, 1 1/8" ahead stem and 31.8mm bars - absolutely gopping!

Also risers with bar-ends, hideous.
 
Re:

Not read all the thread but:

V's on a canti frame.
Modern saddle, seatpost or stem.
Lock on grips.
Risers pre-94.
Forks with too much travel.
Non period correct front suss.
Modern groupset.
