Chro Mo Posted July 8, 2022 Share Been a looong time.... Still have my two Cotics, have tried to sell them, but they are a part of me now, lol! Red X is was repainted by me and logo painted on - not very well, but I learned a lot. Still the best bikes I've owned.

nick_the_wheelbuilder Posted July 27, 2022 Share Mine in current form. Loving the new Arch Mk4 rims on Cure hubs, and the Vittoria tyres. 34x19 ratio for everything. TYGA, Maknash, TyronLab and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is a beautiful bike. 34/19 is a massive gear. My ROS9 is running 30/18. In my fittest days I think I rode 32/19. I think I rode Freedom Challenge 34/20 and all the big stage races 32/20.

My Jhb gear was always 34-18 but since moving to the Garden Route I've had to back it off a bit Chro Mo, Milosh and Jewbacca 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
