my heaviest bike yet and I love it... Dogma FPX

[Discoverspeed]

Brings back memories. Had one of these - Red and Chrome swash. One of the last of the regular size tubed top end bikes. Sweet ride and traditional geometry. Feel like getting one back - eyeballing one at my LBS. A classic forever.

Found an old archive of the Dogma FPX that I owned. Sorry for the poor pic - that was nearly 5-6 years ago and taken on a Palm Treo, before the all megapixel stuff......and before LW Gen3!

I had one and it was an incredible bike. Superb road feel, relatively smooth, very stiff, and looked fast standing still. My frame-fork-headset was something like 1960g in 54cm. Unfortunately, I couldn't use the stock post (I need a 15mm setback or zero setback post) and the stock post was 25mm; it sucked because the size was proprietary and I had trouble finding an alternative. But, as the frame went, it was a joy to ride. Paint was fragile though.

I know this is a thread from the dead

But I've just bought a Dogma FPX from an old demo bike.

So now for the build... I'm in no hurry but the frame colour might be a challenge for some components . Groups will be Record 11 speed without the red highlights but what wheels would look good on this? Hyperons.... This is going to be a comfort not WW build, heresy I know.... But you guys understand aesthetics as well as weight....

Thanks A

This will be awesome! Would your source have any additional frames in inventory for sale?

Send me a PM and I'll let you know. I'd rather not share widely until the frame arrives!!!
