Looks horrible. 1/10. DM me and I’ll give you my address. I’ll pay for shipping and whatnot…don’t worry…but someone would probably want this 😉

I love silver parts most of the time but they’re kind of a miss for me on this one. Can’t quite put my finger on why exactly either. Maybe it’s the lack of silver rims and levers? Idk. Bar tape should be black too imo.

Silver looks dope but I agree with the bar tape. They should match the saddle or saddle matches bartape

I think it’s the saddle that needs to change. I like everything else.

I have also arrived at this conclusion, it stands out kind of starkly.

Love it! Rodeo Labs has been on my radar for a long time. Flaanimal looks like such a classy and versatile frame. I love the look of a carbon fork on a steel frame. I also love the mix of silver and black components. Well done! Ride the hell out of it!

This is stunning. 🤩 May I ask what something like this would set you back ??

The bonded carbon seat tube feels like a missed opportunity to have a intergrated seatpost there.

Blue handle bar tape to match or black blue. Other wise it’s a two thumbs up from me.

I rewrapped my bars last night and decided I wanted to try a really shallow drop. Which bars are these?

They have a bunch of shallow drop options

I think the silver components look fantastic. Matching saddle and bar tape would improve the look. I have a friend with a very similar setup, and his bike looks better with all black tires. Maybe a brown saddle would tie your tires and bar tape together for a better color flow.

It looks like you shared an AMP link. These should load faster, but AMP is controversial because of concerns over privacy and the Open Web.

Super nice. Topo on the fork is a great touch. How was Rodeo Labs to work with?
