Ooooh that is the color right there. Sign me up! Also 66cm are you a basketball player or Andre the Giant? Holy moly I have friends who are tall enough for a 64cm but 66 is crazy tall.

I forgot you're another tall guy on here. Do'h!
You dont have to be 7ft tall for those. I have two road bike frames that size and rode them for several years. Only downside was the TT straddling my jewels when I would stand at a red light. Kinda makes the bike theft proof

I'm only six foot tall. The bike has swept back townie bars so the long top tube makes for a great fit. 50mms of seat post and the bike fits like a glove. I do have to pay attention when stopping and dismounting.

A Bike Too Big

Easy. It has townie handlebars so the reach is a LOT less than if it had bullhorns or drops with hoods.

It would indeed sound terrible.

Everything has gone tapered and the bike I am wanting a fork for is straight steerer. Really really wanted a Rodeo Spork..ah well, this is a cool option.

That is an interesting fork.
What is the fitting or port on the crown, right above the Fixation logo?
Internal brake hose? Flat mount?
Can you give a link to that fork?

If I am not mistaken that is for internal cable/hose routing for a flat mount disc brake. The fork is the Fyxation Sparta so you could say "this is Sparta" because people said that for a time not so long ago.

A White Industries CLD 100X15mm 32h hub plus a CLD Rear hub 12X142 also silver and a ZS44 headset in blue from them but sadly I couldn't find internets pictures so pretend you are seeing the rear hub and headset and that the front hub isn't yet laced.
They make some excellent hubs that are generally some of the cheaper USA made options but still of high quality, plus the boxes they come in are really nice.

Ratcheting wrenches. Man these are so convenient and fast. Should have bought a set a long time ago. No switches for changing direction like a ratchet. No swapping sockets. Just grab the one you need and take care of business. 72 points of engagement, they feel solid as hell, the plating is top notch, and they were cheap and come with a lifetime no matter what warranty. I hope they hold up as well as they feel, look, and function.

For real
I hope it fits my Bianchi.
Gonna be loads of fun on the MUP and should make roller workouts more interesting.
I really feel like this is the missing piece in my training regimen.

I am confused what are those, they seem cool possibly but I cannot tell what they are for whatever reason.
