I like the idea of the steel seat clamp. It can be a lot slimmer than an aluminum one and stronger.

Also, what’s with the 27-9? Seems like hills would be a bit of a pain. I’d rather run easier gearing like 25-10.

Yeah we are testing 9 tooth drivers for Ratchet hubs, not sure when they are coming out. I know what you are saying about the black pad/rim thing, but so far they work. I’ve always been lax about how well my brakes work, so they might not work as well as you might like. The seat clamp is steel, but its real thin and slim. We are trying to mimic the look of integrated seat clamps. As for the grips, Odyssey gave me these to ride because I like Longnecks a lot! Pegs will be back on real soon.

my god you are all nerds, if they were new wonbolts wouldn’t they say prototype on the list? and who cares what the seatclamp is, it will still do the same job. And as for the black rim and brakes, well of course they would work unless you can’t fix a bike. wow all jc has to do is post a typo or put weight specs out and you all go nuts… should put all this effort into getting a root

P.S: Nice bike though, clean

Is that clamp steel? It looks too thin to be aluminum. And when’s the Ratchet gonna be out?

Hey, the weight of the frame was 4.71 lbs and the weight before brakes was 23.08 lbs. We try to balance out strength and weight not just weight when designing a frame.

Sunday is rad. And Jim is a good guy. I’d buy a Sunday if they made a light, by current light bikes standards, frame. For all the thought that goes into it, I think they’d engineer some of the excess out of it.

that bike is awesome. Shaved head tube and all. Looks sweet Jim. Sunday is so awesome.
