So when they shipped out the wheels a bit of a goof happened. But he has a custom pair of Shamal's from me as well so he's got something.


I am not on IG or FB though....

Haha, The arm warmers came with the kit for the ride. I am not fast enough to pull them off normally

here is a quick pic of the complete bike in climbing mode:

Full spec
Super Record 12v with 52.36 and 11-34 for the steeper sections of the sequatchie climb.
Shamal mille clinchers
Paul skewers to deal with hooded rear dropouts
Veloflex corsa
King d11 headset
Fizik r1 stem and cyrano 00 bar
Speedpaly x1
Slr carbonio saddle
PMP carbon post
Arundel mandible cages
15.8 with everything on it
Ill switch it back to florida appropriate gearing and should have some ataggered wtos here shortly.
Such a fantastic handling bike. Full confidence on unfamiliar descents. Just feels right going fast on this

Congrats, that is a great looking build! Light without boutique parts. How is the braking on these wheels in long descents?

Braking seems fine. Ive had coated rims in the past that seemed too grabby. These seems to allow for good consistent modulation. It was dry and the descents were only moderately fast (45mph ish) and they werent really technical so there wasnt anything that worked them too hard.
Ill use them at the greenville event and there are a couple of tough descents that really tested the brakes last year. Esp coming off of Skyuka

Sorry, just noticed this question. It's a stem we have made. It's available in stock and custom lengths and angles. Ryun didn't get one for his frame but it looked really nice and matched the frame so I put it on the frame for the pictures. We've sold a couple to PLF Members.

Normally, I just grab a stem and throw it on there so I can take pictures. But this one is actually getting the stem that's on it! Brushed titanium so it matches the frame perfectly. Upgraded the seat collar to a titanium in brushed as well.

This is going to look amazing with a Super Record kit and custom 45 front/60 rear Bora WTO wheels. Looking forward to see the final pics and a ride report.
That is stunning!
