Rim Brake Perfection, lets fan boy yours..

[saab2000]

Here is my Zanconato. It's been seen on this site before. Still in regular use, mostly on the crushed limestone trails of DuPage and Will Counties in the western burbs of Chicago. Here it is pictured with 28mm Vittoria tires. For these rides I inflate them to about 70 PSI.

It's flat around here, so not a ton of hard of prolonged braking. But when I have to brake the Shimano 105s are just fine.

Wooooowwwww this is perfect. the slightly taller headtubes look so good with a slammed -17. Seems like that was probably the design intent he had in mind...

Do we know where this one went? I'm such a dummy for not buying it at the time.

IPP is where it's at, I'll wave if I ever see you but I only got out there once this year. Also that Zanc is *chefs kiss*

Painted to match stem?

Here's my Mr. Pink. Crap photo of the bike, but it's the first one I found and you get bonus kitties.

Man, you guys and your gorgeous rim brake bikes. One of the reason I love rim brakes is that you can abuse them and undermaintain them and they still work just fine.

I present my dirty CAAD8, with my dirty BMW in the background.

My Great Divide w/28mm GP5Ks. Definitely a favorite.

I have found what I’ve been looking for! Rim brake perfection, atmo, is a Peg Mxxxxxxo. Thanks for this one Clean!

This thing moves me like nothing else does. There’s something about a Mxxxxxxo.



And then there’s this one: new in the house, Peg Duende Cross (clearance for 40s!!!!)(so minty that it hasn’t had its haircut, yet). I’ll list up more about it in its own thread elsewhere.

It’s the visual equivalent to how the Mxxxxxxo goes like stink.

Further to this, does FF maintain a demo fleet in their Boston HQ, such that one can try something like this?
