Beautiful.

+100 and x1,000

new ride. still waiting for a DEDA 100 (gun metal) Stem and new tires.

Nice Build jinws. I like your choice of components, especially the Red group and the crank. There are three Bott CF bikes that I know of now, along with Gee3's. Anyone else? I have not start my build yet, no time. What headset did you use? Gee3 has the Cane Creek IS2 and he was concerned because there is about a 1mm gap between the upper bearings and the cap on his.

Life is better with a red spoke!

I'm using the IS2, there is a gap, and from what I've read in other posts, it is normal. In fact, the gap is designed in by CC. My build was inspired by a BF member in NorCal. I forgot is SN but his real name is Ramon, great climber. He's got the frame with Campy and Ksyrium ES.

Do you mean Bostic (the guy whose post is right above yours :) ) ?

Thanks, I wasn't 100% sure. I'm really bad with names.

Sweet looking ride, Jin. What I find funny is the one crutch in the background next to the snowboard... like it's a given you're gonna hurt yourself:D

lol, after the second set, I figure might as well keep one around, I'll need it.

Stellar build. You'll need to bring it on the next BF ride so I can see the SRAM Red in person. After seeing Norman's Pedal Force RS 50cm, I had to buy one. I might still be on a Trek 5200 if it were not for this website.

:beer:

Can you get the bike with a "hyperspace" button instead of the "easy" button?

Try this site.

We need to organize a Team ADK group ride. I want to see an impressive fleet of Bott/RS frames taking over. It would make for a great picture as well with the bikes lined up.

I'll bring my frame.:D

JINWS, Isn't the rear brake cable a little too high? Shouldn't it be a straight smooth line the the brake housing? It bumps up a little and you may touch it when pedalling, of course with your left leg.


I could be wrong, but just asking as I had a bike with cables like that and would drive me crazy when pedalling.

yea, it's def. a little higher than it can be. so far it hasn't touched my leg, or at least I haven't noticed. I added a couple extra housing for purely cosmetic reasons. I thought the line looked better parallel to the stays going into the brakes.

jobob, yes, please more pics when that gorgeous Rivendell is finished!

all parts are in. the last piece of the puzzle will be some new KCNC skewers. should be released by the end of this month.

Pedal Force RS Fleet at break. My 53cm and Norman's 50cm. Campagnolo Chorus throughout. Cell phone camera so not totally focused. Another rider rode up with one of the 12 days of xmas group buy ADK frames as well.

sick! :eek:

Wow! You really pulled out all the stops on this build!

Thanks. I'm taking my co-workers' advice. Get everything I want before I get married. But yea, now I just need to work on the engine.

When my daughter outgrows her 48cm Battaglin, I now have this 50cm Tommasini waiting in the garage. Oh yeah - daddy got a new frame today, too. A little reward for being such a good dad. :D
