I'm using FMB PR 25, cotton. Ride is more supple than Conti Competition but seems to wear faster. Also, I can notice some irregular spots (I.e. Runout) when I spin the wheel. I guess it is probably a result of handmade. It doesn't seems to suffer road cuts as much as the conti.


cool, what is the headtube length and stack-height ?

Looks really good, but you still have to loose 320g to get "more = equal" :-), and when you have a bike that is already very light with a titanium frame (that weight's 1250g), you will spend more to loose those 320g without lowering the weight limit of the bike 100/110kg.

because below this "weight limit of the bike 100/110kg", it's easy to loose just with the wheels, with a sub 1kg wheels and a 22mm sprint tubular but I wouldn't ride that bike.

Best regards
Very good taste in your bike.

with FMB Paris Roubaix 25 Silk, is the same some irregular spots but nothing special, my last tubulars the Schwable one 24, at least the rear one had lateral deviation at the valve joint.
this is the biggest tubular I can fit in the fork, 1mm clearance, is what I have.

I agree. A bike is most enjoyable when one is able to ride it with confidence.

txs, but can you measure the headtube lenght, the Moots Geo Table only shows the version with the regular headtube ?

Mine measures 13.5cm.
It is 1 cm longer than the standard headtube as per stated by Moots. The result is a similar stack as the standard head tube.
