    @setandsetting - a Strava group exists already, although I think it was set up some time ago.

    I haven’t been out much lately myself due to a knee issue. 🫤

            Just an OCD for steel bikes. I’ve been downsizing from 20ish to about 12 now.

              @Denimhead-0 that is a nice collection of bikes. I have to agree there is something nice about hand made steel frames, lugged or fillet brazed.

              I have a new incoming frame, hopefully has cleared customs this week and ready to be built when I get home from work in a weeks time. I am a sucker for Nicolai bikes, have had quite a few of them over the years including the Rohloff speedhub based Nucleon frames. When Nicolai announced the new Nucleon 16 I knew I was in trouble. I have owned every Nucleon frame to date.

              The new Nucleon 16 is the first production bike to use the Lal Supre Drive system. Looking forward to seeing how this works. I needed to buy two chains due to the longer chain length required for the system.

              The rear triangle is black anodized and front triangle is "Arctic Green" which is a colour shifting green / purple powdercoat finish.

              There is no 'I' in team …............ however there are five in 'individual brilliance'.

                That bike is going to be sick. Can’t wait to see the finished build. Here is a pick of my custom Retrotec Single speed, really fun on the single track.

                  @Denimhead-0 Is the Retrotec a tribute to the old Corratec design?

                  Did you see that Merlin Metalworks are releasing a modern Newsboy bike?

                  https://www.merlinbikes.com/limited-edition-newsboy

                  Classic / retro bikes especially mountain bikes is another rabbit hole. I always wanted a Manitou, Trimble or Funk frame. I do have an original Clockwork Orange mountain bike complete with quill stem and aluminum rigid forks.

                    Also very lucky to have picked up a Jones welded Jones before the manufacture went to Asia.

                            @JunkPants Thanks! It’s a Triathlon / Time Trial bike. Quite a limited use case, but fast as hell.

                                @Dmart I'm so happy for my Speedmax, hope you will feel the same. When going hard on the flats I don't feel the speed - I am speed! 🙂

                                      @Nik I have only been on the turbo for now. It’s certainly different than a road bike with extensions. You sit closer to the bottom bracket. I really love the in bike storage for gels, maintenance and hydration. It’s very well thought through.
