Here's my "new" bike.

Bought the frame and fork recently from Ebay at a cheap price. They're Salsa Mariachi (L) frame and Salsa Moto Grande fork. Previously i had an scandium MTB frame with those same 700 wheels and a 26'' aluminium fork and i was getting tired of the small room my wheels had for fenders or fatter tires. The new set up feels extremely confortable, specially the fork, it absorbs much, much more than my previous set up, plus i had a Salsa Ala Carte as a teenager and i felt in love with this El Mariachi as it happened before with the Ala Carte. I love these bikes.

Road Tiagra shifters with cyclocross inline brake levers and Avid's mechanic road disc brakes, 3x9 drivetrain, covered so i can ride it with normal/office clothes. Bontrager disc brake compatible rack. SKS Fenders. 700 wheels with dynohub and 28mm Michelin tires. Lumotec Cyo R headlight and Lumotec Flat tail light (these and the disc brakes are two things i wont change for nothing!). Duopower seat... i know it isn't nice, but i can use it on my 20 mile roundtrip commute with normal clothes and my ***** wont hurt.











Sorry for the bad quality pics, i'll try to take better ones and my apologies for my poor english.

Coque.
