Tom wells Posted August 17, 2018 Posted August 17, 2018 Check out my new ride! Frame painstakingly built by the legendary Dave Mercer, paint by Jared_BMC, lots of help from Ryan at Bikes Etc (old Mikes Bikes) to source and fit parts. More than 1 year in the making See you on the spruit!
Tom wells Posted August 17, 2018 Author Posted August 17, 2018 What ratios are you running? 36 / 16. The crank is a very old 120bcd, so 36 is the minimum it can fit - but perfect ratio for the mostly flat spruit!
the nerd Posted August 17, 2018 Posted August 17, 2018 Looks great! Did you get a matching steel fork?
Tom wells Posted August 17, 2018 Author Posted August 17, 2018 Looks great! Did you get a matching steel fork? The fork is an old Lauf Trail Racer that I got re-sprayed to match the frame - was previously a matt black / carbon colour.

V12man Posted August 17, 2018 Posted August 17, 2018 36 / 16. The crank is a very old 120bcd, so 36 is the minimum it can fit - but perfect ratio for the mostly flat spruit!I run 34/18 on my so that does spruit duty - 36/16 will be tough up the Delta park climbs but manageable if you are strong. Looks good.
6AL4V Posted August 19, 2018 Posted August 19, 2018 Awesome ... what tubing did you use ... Reynolds / Columbus?
Tom wells Posted August 19, 2018 Author Posted August 19, 2018 Columbus. You can see the little white dove on red oval columbus logo on the seat tube
