Love this bike

Absolutely love this bike, maybe because it’s a expensive version of what i’m trying to accomplish :D I’m terribly biased but come on… it does looks beautiful :)

    I like a nice long, don’t you think that one looks a bit wack? 100mm minimum I say!

    Stem, doh.

    I know what you mean dude… long quills or even long trick stems look a lot nicer… do they give you any more or any less control over shorter ones? or is it vice versa?

    Loose the drops.

    ha ha, they’re not the nicest looking drops in the world are they… but i think it’s the stem like Ty said?! makes the bars look weird!

    I don’t know the ins and outs of control/stem length I just know that I like all four of my fingers to sit comfortably on the underside of the stem when I’m wheeling my whip away from Costa :-p

    Ha ha… if i could wheelie then i’d comment… my new Technomic stem is beautiful though and it feels a little less wriggly than my previous one that was shorter? so maybe there’s an optimum length of stem for perfect wheel control??
