Beautiful frame. The dropbar is so genius. Very awesome. One thing I noticed, the frame looks too small for you sir. Just like in the other videos. I’m assuming It is not yours maybe? Im just concern with the angle of your back that could lead to spine injury especially on the lumbar. I love the geometry of the bike though. 💯beauty ❤
That’s what I want to know, I very much doubt it, pretty certain he stropped making years ago. If it is, then this is one special bike by a very special builder.
Toe overlap, often referred to as 'TO', is a common occurrence in custom road bike design, especially for individuals who don't align with standard off-the-shelf bike measurements. Many cyclists, when first encountering TO, may have initial worries about it, but it's essential to understand that in most cases, toe overlap is normal, inevitable, and not a cause for concern. TO happens when the front wheel of a bicycle overlaps with the cyclist's toe or front part of the shoe at the bottom of the pedal stroke. It's more common in smaller bike frames and those with larger front wheels or longer crank arms. While designing bikes, the key goal is to find the perfect balance between geometrical considerations, control, efficiency, and comfort. In the quest to avoid TO, some big brands may compromise on these factors, especially on smaller sized bikes. This compromise often results in a far-from-optimal riding position, causing discomfort and possibly even chronic pain for the rider. In contrast, custom road bike design, while not completely eliminating TO, focuses on rider comfort and a tailored fit that supports their unique physiological needs. This approach enhances the riding experience and minimizes any chronic discomfort associated with riding. You might wonder if TO is ever problematic during actual rides. It occurs when the bike is moving at a slow speed, turning sharply, or during a standing start. However, these instances are relatively rare during a typical ride, especially once riding skills grow. Just like the initially daunting task of using clipless pedals, handling TO can be mastered over time. When riders first transition to clipless pedals like Look and Shimano pedals, they may find it challenging, even dangerous, because the foot is firmly attached to the pedal. But, with practice, clipping in and out becomes second nature; the reflexes improve as riders gain more experience. Similarly, handling TO becomes a learned skill. With sufficient cycling experience, riders instinctively avoid pedaling on sharp turns or make tiny corrections to their foot positioning to prevent TO. More importantly, the benefits of a bike that fits well and accommodates a rider's specific body structure far outweigh the minor inconvenience of TO. Toe overlap, while something to be aware of, should not be a deciding factor in choosing a bicycle. Instead, proper bike fit and rider comfort should take precedence, helping eliminate chronic pain and improving the overall riding experience.
The distance between the saddle nose and the hoods, is not a good point to use as a messuring point, the variance in saddel lenght is just way too high. Plus you are sitting way to far on the tipp than on the saddel itsself.
Very intriguing handlebar design now that we know that forearms parallel to the ground is the most aero road riding position.

Where did you get the handlebar?
this is pretty insane, and the bike itself is really great.
Thank you

How much whole bike?
What do you do if there's a toe overlap? I observed in your video that almost half of your foot overlaps with your front wheel?
It seems even pedals overlap

people will love this bar if they can get it.

You wouldn't be switching saddles constantly right?

Your chain is too long
Keen observer. You’re right.
At this section of the video we have not cut the chain yet as the chainring is set to be replaced. From 50T to 54T
