Mismatched and/or coloured cables (Stanton & Chromag^^) don’t work for me, but that Chromag paint job rocks

Am I the only one that likes to see some wear on these bikes?

I like the character that worn components give.

That being said, black is the only color for cables in my opinion.

Is covid 19 also to blame for the sexy HT drought that we are clearly experiencing? Eek


Sorry! I should add that I have been looking for candidates out there, but I can't find anything!

Almost looks like they allowed for some "patina" and then clearcoated the steel tubes. Probably some cool paint technique. Whatever it is, looks awesome.

stunning paint job indeed. i never thought i'd ever say that, but gold xx1 cranks might be a match.

btw, can one of you folks name the grips on the stanton?
