But hey, it’s on the rear wheel. The rear brake is mainly ornamental anyway

Those raceface carbon team issue cranks won’t die. I’ve been slamming on mine since 2015 and they had been used by a 250lb+ rider for 5 years before I started riding it.

That’s a lot of faith in a bad looking weld.

For everyone who said the brake caliper bracket weld was shit, that’s not a shit weld. This is.

That thing is lovely
Looks great! I love seeing someone just getting it done, armchair ‘bike experts’ be damned.
Wet sand the cranks. They look 100 percent better.
Looks great. Nice bike.
Wow bold statement, quick release, sliding drop out, disc brake.
You ever consider that you’re the trash?
Life is a series of decisions…
If only I had a steel bike to weld on…
It’s not easy finding a good Ti welder/builder that will take on a small side job of welding ISO tabs + gusset.
Why not installing rear disc brake adapter instead of welding?
