Fork looks out of place for some reason though. Is it road or track?

Ackit 11-24-08 01:41 AM

It came with the frame, I think pinarello just converted a road fork hah but its supposed to be a track fork

First track frame I've seen with bottle mounts, brake bosses and mounts for a pannier rack...

It's called being mature, hopefully you'll learn this once you hit puberty. :thumb:

My observation: the fork/stem clashes with the rest of the theme (see crankset). I would have loved to see a matching (or chrome) steel fork, quill stem, but that's just me.

Ackit 11-24-08 08:42 AM

Yeah, I can see what you mean, I really want to put a more modern campy crank on there honestly, this one came with the frameset and I don't want it sitting around haha.

don't be scared to let your chain have just a bit of slack.

theme?

ZiP0082 11-24-08 09:52 AM

by theme he means classic italian steel/aluminum i think (instead of carbon fiber).

bigbris1 11-24-08 10:37 AM

I meant the crank says this:

But the resto of the components say:

Ackit 11-24-08 12:36 PM

Thats my plan, as I said the crank came with the frameset so I'm looking to trade the old crank for a new one hopefully, someone has one its a 165 arm though, might be too short for me.

Was that the Pini on eBay recently? The 61cm one? I bought it for the BIN and then had a change of heart, thinking it would be too big and it was relisted.

I can't do barspins, but I can bomb downhills on my cyclocross bike. :)

it would be "the cranks clash with the rest of the theme"

no way you're getting a quill stem on that one...
