One for every day of the month!
Seriously though I hope those all get ridden, at least every now and then.

As you say, steel is so smooth and quiet. I would add awesomely stable when going downhill also.
Out of curiosity, what kind of clothes, shoes, glasses etc. do you use when on your steel gems?

We need photos of those too !
IMHO there are a few things that do not match the frame well like the different profiles of the wheels, the Sram groupset, the rotor cransket, the oval chainrings.

But it‘s perfect to ride and it has a smooth handling:kgt wrote:IMHO there are a few things that do not match the frame well like the different profiles of the wheels, the Sram groupset, the rotor cransket, the oval chainrings.
Sram is much easier to handle the big rings with small hands; the front wheel is perfect for her low weight and we started with the Q-Rings 7 years ago and we‘re happy with it. And she rides 10‘-12000k in a year and she is happy with it. It‘s her choice: Happy Wife, happy life.
