SHORT SOCK ALEEEERT!!!!!

Poeple feigning indignation about [the alleged lack of] cycling fashion is a bigger blight on, cycling in this case, society than anything happening at family restaurants.  :devil:   :ph34r:

Finally got round to fitting the last of my goodies onto my dikwiel: Shimano XT Trekking brakes (they have lekker long levers), 180mm IceTec rotors spaced to fit correctly at the rear, and a nice short 50mm KCNC stem :)

 

This finishes a transformation of a heavy clunker to a bike that has a lekker comfy seat and riding position now, weighs a bit less and actually stops when you brake :) Super happy now :) :) :) :)

Are those FRM hubs ?

Yip, Titan Fat Carbon hubs laced to Mulefut 80mm rims with stainless spokes and brass nipples. Bought them from EvoBikes on a clearance sale late last year while recovering from broken hip, and only managed to get them tubeless'd and rear disc spacing sorted now. Really light hubs, will have to see how they hold up!!!!!

Fashion is ephemeral.

Long socks does not mean you are cool / hip / rad / in

Sometimes short socks just mean you care

I'm a MTBer, not a roadie, as far as I know we have no rules, let alone sock fashion ones.

Will post a pic of my supper short secret socks tomorrow especially for you.
