What's in the Workstand ? ?

Waiting for the new levers, calipers, front rotor and dropper switch to complete it, but got it mostly built up today.

Nice tires! I’ve been using the Barzo Mezcal TNT combo and love it - the Mezcal offers surprising grip. Your tan TLRs look sharp!

Is that the new SID Ultimate fork?

Thanks Steve! I have had these Barzo tires hanging around for a bit unused, so figured it was time to give them a shot! They look and feel pretty nice while also being relatively lightweight. Looking forward to trying them out.

It is the new SID Ultimate fork. One of the members here was kind enough to offer it up along with some Enve M6 bars. It is pretty beefy for a SID with 35mm stanchions while still being pretty lightweight.

I am waiting on some Magura brakes to come in this week and then I will get a chance to take it out on the local trails. Took my rigid 26er on them today and they are looking pretty good!

Nice. What model is that? Still enjoying my 5010 even though it's old by MTB standards now (2016 model?).

Tallboy 3 cc. I know the new design is out, but this looks like it will suit my needs for a while!

Does it come with a 6-month crash course on Italian language classes?

I no longer do it, but that right there is what you call a drinking bike.

Oops, sorry... Does it include a speed course?

How's that sound, better?

I'm pretty sure Rolland never built a Di2-native frame, so this will likely be a unicorn. That said, I'm guessing there aren't many DS Road Fixies out there, so it will go from rare to rarer...

This is a very pretty bike! Love the bars — perfect for the fixie setup!
