I like that seat post. Is that an Easton-style two bolt head?

Out of curiosity, what is the size of the seat post clamp you're using? I tried measuring my seat tube and ordered a 28.6 based on that, but it doesn't seem to want to fit.

The one I used is listed as 28.6-29.0, I had to really loosen the bolt I thinks it’s due to super thick paint.

Thanks! yeah I may have to strech the collar out a bit. The 27.2 seatpost isn't really sliding through that easily either

So we’re almost there, I’m thinking of swapping the seatpost collar and headset for orange Wolf Tooth ones, and using the silver WI for another incoming project.

The stem is temp for fitting and will prob be replaced by a Ti jobber.

Thinking orange bar tape?

The bike is quoted at 38 rear 35 front. I installed 42s and had at least 6mm at the chainstay and gobs in the front.

The tyres installed are are 40s.

Just living in the moment, not a dangle-mug to be seen.

So options:

* 11-40 XT cassette: $95
* R8000 group I already own: free
Ooh, I would like to know more about that setup. Would you be willing to elaborate on the type/cage/year of record rear derailleur that would work with such a large cassette? What would work on 11-36? Any concern without a rear derailleur clutch? Thanks!

It’s a work in progress on another bike at the moment, hopefully will be done tonight, if so I’ll ping you the info.

But basically, short cage 1rst Gen. 11 speed Record RD with Wolftooth and narrow wide jockey wheels. I raced CX off and on for 20 years before clutch rds were a thing, we made do.
