Enjoy!

 

If I had the new tires and tubes on hand, it would have been fitted last night, trust me.

 

Will make a turn at the LBS on my way home, and it will then be a done deal tonite. 

 

I will enjoy them, thanks. Been pondering this purchase a while already.

but this is for a flat mount fork to fit a post mount brake?

I needed to fit it the other way round - flat mount brake to post mount fork.

:whistling:

Ah yes of course. Then thats truly odd by Cannondale.

So after months of flip flopping between buying a slade trial or building a dartmoor back to buying a slade. I did the logical thing and bought a Commencal.

Now I'm waiting like a kid on Christmas :clap:

You bought a commencal box?

 

Must of costed a pretty penny

Thats so odd.

 

And this wouldn't work:

Not trying to sell it - you've solved the problem already.

No, that is post mount to post mount...

 

You get adapters like yours and adapters to put a post mount caliper on a flat mount frame. But getting a flat mount calier on a post mount frame or fork is more challenging - AFAIK only the Canadian company that makes it commercially.

 

Edit: sorry, I see your question has been answered already.

The box (+ bike) is in cpt still.

 

It is an AM essential. Complete overkill but why not. :ph34r:

No such thing as overkill. It’s called travel envy. Enjoy the bike!

Not a purchase as such but a gift from DJR, my riding buddy. Hand made and personalized leather pouches. The smaller of the 2 holds the tools shown in the pic which is perfect for the MTB and easy to slip into a pocket, either in baggies or jersey pocket. The bigger one holds a road tube, puncture kit, multitool and tyre lever, also fits easily into a jersey pocket.

Easy if you transfer tools between bikes and don't like tubby bags.

Finally finished my C50 (v2)

Huge thanks to @Patchelicious for bringing the frame back from the UK for me.

And once again I'm forever grateful to the maestro himself, @Bogusdesigns for the flawless paintjob.

Wow that’s special, nice Patch the courier and Bogus!
