We love a blinged out Ouroboros. So does Alex Loodin Ek.
Built up by Day Time Cycling, this icy looking Ouroboros CR ticks all the boxes.
Alex says:
"Frame-up, built myself over the summer. The brief was loaded days on rough FSR, so it always came down to tyre clearance and gear range. 55mm up front and a 10-51 out back. Running rigid for now. A short travel fork is the obvious next move, but the frame has the headroom so there is no rush. Silver theme throughout, which was mostly an aesthetic decision I have no intention of defending."
Iced out!
The silver Thomson seat post is a thing of beauty
Snek.
Butts love a Books saddle
The sound these Project 321 hubs make is very aesthetically pleasing.
