Your back tire is fitted backwards. #yesitmatters i was wondering if anyone else would notice that - lol it has been fixed some eagle eyes you have there #youshouldbelookingatthebikenotthetires ChrisF 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All the parts are now ready for this build. stay tuned for the Bossi Grit SX build with Sram Force AXS and ENVE AG25 wheels Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DieselnDust Posted September 17, 2022 Share Just a question: how much glass fibre is Bossi using to insulate the carbon structure from the titanium? There’s a fairly large potential in the differing dielectric strength so that’s a good battery. toubakso want to be weary of aluminium parts like bb shells in the titanium frame Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I recall when I had a Ti frame there was a few forks Litespeed advised to not use as the forks steerers weren't all insulated well. The Reynolds Forks was their recommendation because it contained glass fibre to act as an insulator to prevent ion exchange between the dissimilar materials. So Just wondering is Bossi does the same. Glass fibre also adds a bit of compressive strength to the steerer. Or do they employ a different method/material as insulator, kevlar for instance?

Furbz Posted September 19, 2022 Share So I finished this build late on Sunday. Popped it through the wash today and I must admit this bike is a real head turner! I struggled to source a BB and eventually settled with buying an overkill Ceramic Speed BB - damn these things spin forever! Sram force AXS was an easy mount up as always. I chose a few additional manufacturer extras for this bike - the Bossi titanium stem, seatpost and finishing kit(spacers and top cap) really paid off to make this bike stand out. As always brilliant Enve AG25 carbon wheels coupled with Maxxis Rambler 45c tires ensures this bike will have only the plushest of rides. A set of super flared Ritchey WCS carbon bars with some lovely contoured drops finish this build off to give a great first contact with the bike. splat, capediver, DieselnDust and 7 others 9 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
