Vassago Optimus Ti. I've changed a few things since this pre-initial ride pic was taken (tires, went to clipless pedals, grips, seat post clamp, etc). It's also much dirtier now. Very fun bike.

Isn't it a criminal offense to paint a ti bike? j/k...looks really nice (and fast)

Nice build. Would you mind sharing how this setup rides? Specifically, how does the Spot with its 'modern' geometry and shortish stem handle with the rigid fork?
I'm in the middle of building up a Rocker to replace a rigid Niner One9. Went with 100mm on the front. However, your build has caused some second guessing. Of course, I could just try it for myself.
Thanks.

I really like how it rides. The head angle is not nearly as steep as my last bike (Specialized Crave SL)and the wheelbase is a good amount longer. So it feels a lot more stable and less twitchy but with just as direct steering. I no longer feel like I am fighting with the bike to keep it on it's line.

Woah. Haven't seen a surviving Zion still in the wild for a long time.

A local guy used to show up for our Wednesday evening ride with one of those, his only bike. He moved to Colorado a couple years ago and that is still the only bike he owns and rides.
