I think it's been hanging from a hook for too long - it bent the top tube

Although there is something about the matte finish and black colour scheme. Is that belt drive?

For me its the velosolo 15t bolt on cog i just got for £2.99. Its disgustingly beatiful in a weird industrial fashion.

Mostly that it looks soo different. Brown leather / ti / black colour scheme floats my boat too.

I already own a Bonty... but I really like this set up (actually a "factory" S/S, iirc).

why the countersunk bolts?

See chain interference issue here:
[img] [/img]

Originally we did not produce a 15t Disc Cog as the bolt pattern means the chain would very slightly foul the mounting bolt heads on cogs smaller than 16t. However, by using specific countersunk style bolts with a 3mm hex key fitting there is just enough clearance to prevent this.

You'll probably hate me for this, but I'd really like a Saracen Kili Flyer either in Tange Prestige or Ti, depending on cost

I agree, but what a good idea for 16+ tooth cog. I'd never heard of this set up before and it looks like a cheap way of sampling the SS fetish 🙂

The OP made me sick a l;ittle bit in my mouth. Not nice.

The rest of the thread has some taste though! Especially the Kili Flyer, the Pace, the Black Sheep and JA in Sinc City 🙂

Weirdly, this:

I'm looking to make an adapter to allow this to fit to my old Hope XC front hubs.. Different bearings and a sleeve to support the inner races and it'll be as good as bolt through, without buying new hubs or forks. Email me if interested.
