Here we have probably the raciest steel rim brake bike I own.

so many nice bikes! Love the black Alliance with bar end shifters - beautiful, even though I am an ergo kinda guy.

Clean, that Firefly was amazing - what a mistake to sell that!

Having ridden discs on road bikes for years, I am now getting all sentimental and wanting a mid-reach rim braked bike to admire - like a Kirk!

Thanks!
Yup. Max in front, Columbus 29r stays.
Brakes are Suntour XC roller cams.

That is such a unique bike and dang, that is a serious commitment to such old school brakes! I had a set of those on a vintage Ritchey back in the day. Very cool.

This thread is gonna get a nice pic of my SV rim road when it's all built out. Expect porn in early November. OT: Sacha gave me just about the best bike fit I've ever had.

The custom 1 piece stem upside down steerer that bolts under the HT to fork clamp was what got me.
