Shebeen Posted May 3, 2021 Share next question!!! This is a great bike, can't believe it took me so long to unleash. The paintwork is exquisite, but a little chippy.has anyone found it to get marks easily, and if so, suggestions on colours to touchup (I got the orange/blue one) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MORNE Posted June 14, 2021 Share quick question for all you that bought a frame. Do these come with both the front and rear axles in the box? seems comms about these are still going across the pond unfortunately. still waiting for an answer and TWT aren't sure..i phoned them this morning. EDIT: i'm asking because I seem to recall that they didn't come with a front axle - something along the lines of "they are easy to get hold of so buy it yourself" on the old local website. I can be wrong though. thanks Edited June 14, 2021 by MORNE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MORNE Posted June 14, 2021 Share thanks for the PM, yes they do come with both front and rear axles to anyone wondering the same. Got an answer on here in 5 minutes, requesting the info fromt he actual seller/brand - still havent received an answer even after phoning TWT (although they are nice and friendly people at TWT). They did mention that FARR questions get send across the pond LOL - go figures. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MORNE Posted July 29, 2021 Share Can anyone on here who has run one of these with a front derailleur please elaborate what and how? My wife might want a 2x11 105 setup instead of the 1x grx thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

andreas17777 Posted July 29, 2021 Share Basically pulled from the bottom, using internal cable route. ChrisF and MORNE 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is exactly why i asked...the frame is top pull but most road mechs are bottom pull. next question.... i'm not well versed in the dark arts of modern front derailleurs....do most of them have this part for a cable housing to stop against? because thats the only reason you could make this work. it will most probably be a 105 front mech. EDIT: i also found this pic of someone elses FARR. How was that made to work? Edited July 29, 2021 by MORNE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Uhm, I don’t know if the fd comes with that part, my mechanic came up with this solution so would think any good mechanic would as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing was 'solved' there my a bike spanner imo lol. Thanks for the insight though...I sent the guy with the other bike a PM too. andreas17777 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shebeen Posted October 28, 2021 Share took this baby through a karoo/swartberg loop last week. has anyone used the official Farr bags for storage? i'm specifically looking at one of these(this is on int site, and not available yet). now they did have some on the local shop, and i assume they were designed around this frame(although obviously frame sizes vary within a model - mine is 56). did anyone get these, and use them? just for fun, he she is hanging out with a friend Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good quality with no issues. Not on the Farr frame, but fitted well on a size large mtb. Edited October 28, 2021 by Dusty Shebeen 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toasted marshmallows Posted April 18, 2022 Share This bike is very appealing lately... ticking the right boxes. Only curious has anyone built a racier spec of these???? Carbon fork? Sram etap? And light wheels? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carbon fork? Sram etap? And light wheels? If you want to spend that money on groupset and wheels, rather get a custom Mecer!!! About a month ago there were a Mecer frame in small available. Unfortunately my dispossible income is zero after the new old house and upcoming renovations. MORNE 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
