Beautiful build. I have a pair of Speedplay Pave's which I got to use at Paris-Roubaix sportif this year,. Great in the mud. Really disappointed that the stem isn't available on the Sturdy website but I guess it must be to order only.

Magnetically attached bike bags is genius on Ti 😆 I’ve frame wrapped my crux in clear tape so that my straps don’t grind the frame on gravel. Bike packing on a crux is phenomenal btw
@TwistedWheels

fuck yeah!
some yellow bar tape to match the tires would also look amazing
Incredible. You could make these videos twice as long and we would love it! I’m not sure about the yellow tyre walls though. I would choose black or grey 😉

I like the yellow….. it’s a little different. I have a red frame and now those tires got me thinking about how good red and yellow look together.
I’d like to see you build the ultimate maneuverable lightweight urban bike, maybe folding but not necessarily, with a mini velo frame and 406 wheelset.
Wow! Bike looks amazing!! Do you happen to know why the steerer tube isn’t titanium?

Awesome Dream Build! 💯 How much is the total cost of the build? If you don't mind me asking =)

Love the bike, if you don't mind me asking what chain did you use with the rotor cassette? Also did you need a spacer behind the cassette on the freehub?

Don’t think you can apply labels like “fast” and “slow” to frame materials without taking into account all other factors and parts.

@@TwistedWheels interestingly i try the same component. only minor like crankset is different because one use BB30 one use Shimano 24. but both use 50-34 and cassette 32 it still mystery but probably i think it is about aerodynamic and geometry. TI frame in long run in some case it feel need more energy to keep fast and it will does feel heavier when accelerate, contrary with the carbon it feel more agile and more superior in acceleration. for comfort it almost identical minus for TI make my body more tired, shock damping not really much different yes it feel more soft for micro bump but for heavy broken road both are helpless TI carbon both are rough in bad road. i compare this thing for both my old Carbon from pardus and the TI is from litespeed. the only thing i love about TI i can load a lot pack on it without worry break my frame and it never rust. but for performance. i say carbon still far more better.
