Cool, but that recumbent doesn't look very mobile.

What's up with that fork?

It's to balance out the rear stays, and I got it for below cost. It will be replaced with a steel fork in a few years.

Is that a Wound Up brand fork?

So I couldn't get the seat(B-17) to work on my Thomson setback post. The front screw maxed out with the nose about 5° too high.


No big problem as I had an older Ritchey post laying around that worked just fine.


And a raised the seat just a bit so now I need a taller stem.

How do you like the fork? They are supposed to be nice aren't they?

It's the only carbon fork I've had so... it has a nice ride. I mostly just ride country back roads with the occasional gravel road thrown in.

Is that the trick chair of doom sitting in the background?

Why don't your tires match???

We saw a Brooks knock off that looks really nice last week.

I only needed a rear, and all they had were Pyramid tires which turned out to be a Kenda on closer inspection. I might go pick up the other one. 35c Kenda = 30c

Saw that in the new Rivendell reader -- a cutout Brooks. Looks interesting.
