Nothing but natural light, holmes. I can't help it if it shines like a diamond.

scrod any chance of you doing a pake rum runner or similar frame build with components that arent the go to parts like sugino 75/omnoms/thomson ect,
like an average solid build that would attract a crowd that would normally look towards state/aventon/other mediocre completes that are flooding the market. Just to show a good build can happen on a solid budet.
ok lost my train of thought.....****

I really like the Rum Runner and think it's definitely the best option on the market as far as inexpensive steel frames go.

Da ****. Never knew those were links. Shows how observant I am. Guess you are just smarter than I am.
But at least I can spell brake.

Do you use the color matching Pake steel fork or something else ? Personally, I think the Pake frame looks very nice, but the unicrown fork looks kinda cheap.

The Pake fork sucks. We usually use either the curved blade or straight blade lugged forks we sell at the shop.

Threw the TT wheelset on the Langster Pro to see what it'll look like.

Interesting. The 38mm vs 41mm rake probably doesn't make a difference. But the Pake axle to crown is 383mm. The other is 365mm. That seems significant. I wonder how it changes things.

Considering the slight difference in rake, the shorter atc measurement is less significant that you are overthinking it to be.
