Sick bike. Deserves a couple of new water bottles I reckon.

😅just had to throw out my large bottles, so these have to do until I get my new ones

I wish the fork would be a little beefier since the head tube area is so big from the side view. Feels a little out of proportion since I saw it the first time. Other angles look beautiful. Great bike!

I thought so too, but in person the fork is acctually quite wide...

This colour looks so good. What tyre will fit in the back?

Currently running a 32mm measuring 35mm but there's probably 2 or 3mm of space on each side so 35mm tyre should fit on some rims...

lovely sharp lines on that frame. Get rid of those bottles and the hideous saddle bag!

The second I had a new bike coming I had matching bottles on the way. Seems wild to have a bike that nice with those bottles.

At very least I’d have removed the bottles before taking the photo. I was actually told bottles in photos on here is not cool lol

Yeah nice bike and a good attempt at a decent first photo but those bottles ruin it as bike porn
