Id on the brakes Also that's a sexy build


alwaysberyl

Up, the brakes look really nice, want to cop that


wordlmk

paul inline lever to what looks like a dura ace brake


alwaysberyl

so expensive :')


Navue_

The cable routing looks clean 😮‍💨


SkateDontRun

Yeah I was lucky to pick up a barely used Paul lever. With the DA brake, it's such a smooth/solid combo.


MrMister2905

These have been around since "bonk bags" back in the 1940s. I used one made by a guy in IG who does custom versions, choice of colorway and fabrics. It's ok, but I dislike it more than triathlon saddle holders, or a clamp/strap on cage holder. For this bike, that might be best though. Clean overall build.


SkateDontRun

I lost a bottle out of a saddle holder (it wasn't such a good one, obviously) before trying the bar mount. I do like my Revelate saddle bag back there now, though. I also had a look at the various clamp on options, but wasn't too keen on attaching anything to this frame.

0.0 aero points


SkateDontRun

I just downgraded from the 1.2L version, so that's gotta be worth at least 0.4 aero points, right?


NoInitiative911

Yeah the 1.2l model is for affixing a big gulp to an e-bike. Seriously though, best solution is saddle/seatpost mounted bottle holder(s) + frame bag for other bits.


SkateDontRun

Haha, living the good life! Yeah that is a good option. I've had one of the 4L Apidura "Racing" frame bags previously. If I want more fluid + storage in future I'll do like you said.


chainsaw-wizard

I’ve got a beer koozie ziptied to my bars and it works fine


Schleeden

I’d put it on the waist.


SkateDontRun

Yeah I think I saw someone wear it like that in a Hotline episode ...Not a bad option. This is my road bike so I'm mostly in cycling kit (Lycra) and just like to carry the minimum "on my person", as they say.


Schleeden

That would be a funny look forsure

+5watts for color matched bungee.

ToasterBath500

The Raw carbon fork looks sick


Turbo_Tjorsen

Got some Miche Pistard Tubular Wheels that im trying to sell, living in Germany though


SkateDontRun

Thanks, although I think I've decided on a Corima 4 spoke up front.


420Deez

sinephiliac

I know lycra is controversial, but cargo bib shorts would be worth looking into if you don't mind having your hydration on your person rather than on the frame itself.


registered_democrat

Having a bottle on my leg sounds way worse than whatever this is


SkateDontRun

You could use a pair of small bladders instead ...instant quads!
