TYGA Posted July 19, 2013 Posted July 19, 2013 My SS baby, no bell yet :-) Some seriously straight handlebars you've got going there.
janneman72 Posted July 19, 2013 Posted July 19, 2013 Some seriously straight handlebars you've got going there. I've tried Mary's and after a lot of riding gone back to straight bars, works great for me.

V12man Posted July 20, 2013 Posted July 20, 2013 I'd like to paint this frame matte black but am concerned about whether it would need a matte clear coat to protect the paintwork, which I don't seem to be able to get locally. Has anyone been through this ? You can convert clearcoat to matte using a flattening agent, which you add to the clearcoat before painting - available from most automotive paint suppliers. This also is available for non- basecoat/clearcoat automotive paints.
BBN Posted July 20, 2013 Posted July 20, 2013 Wolf Components Chain ring, Thanks JanosShe's a beauty, must be light too, you have some top kit on there.
BBN Posted July 20, 2013 Posted July 20, 2013 Did you comment in the china carbon thread as well, especially as some had concerns over Flyxii Ok, just noted that you had posted in that thread too Took a chance and all went well. They do have PayPal so felt fairly confident.
Neill Du Toit Posted July 21, 2013 Posted July 21, 2013 My single speed. Tried to convert as cheap as possible - spacers, 18t sprocket, tensioner and 8speed chain worked out ± R530. Used existing 32 middle chain ring. Enjoying every minute on the bike except the real steep stuff, still need to strengthen the legs a bit:-) Tuxstir and shaper 2
