That bike should keep you out of the broom wagon..

Looking forward to seeing that one in full and built out - I've been admiring Sarto frames and trying to learn more where I can..

When I learned that he was building in carbon, I sent him a Look geometry chart and asked him if he could meld the Look's geo with the contact points of my Strada Bianca.
Today, my frame arrived. The frame is of to Fairwheel for a build tomorrow, hope to be riding this weekend.

Please post more pictures. I've also been considering a Hampsten Carbon myself. Enjoy.

Slight thread hijack: Here's my Hampco carbon (in slurpee paint). I've been slowly dialing in the fit by lowering the bars, changing to a Thompson stem and generally tweaking things and it's just a stellar bike. Right now it's got Shamal Milles with 28mm Corsas and it'll go anywhere. Also has a Potenza RD and an 11-32 cassette because I was going to take it to Mallorca (took a different bike).

Enjoy that Hampco!

Digirit Derailleur cage with oversized jockey wheels

I mangled my older Dura-Ace rear derailleur cage with a chain drop that snapped the derailleur off the frame of my Cervelo R5. (no break away hanger)
So while the frame is getting repaired with a new dropout WITH a break-away hanger from Ritchey, I replaced the cage with a Taiwan-made Digirit cage that has oversized jockey wheels...I also replaced the chain (KMC)
