Here's a sneak-peek image of this bad mamma-jamma. I think you've inspired me to do a build thread...
To prove that this bike is indestructible (at the risk of ruining this build's reputation by taking it too far) check out this other photo. The star nut was slowly slipping then broke fully, so I got a carbon steerer expander plug, wrapped it in sandpaper and carbon grippy paste, and cranked that baby down. She'll never rattle again. Aluminum is king.
P.S. I have since learned, after sanding it down, that the fork was recalled for snapping at the carbon-aluminum interface. But I choose to believe all the miles on my fork
decrease the chances of it snapping, rather than increase it.
