Roadeo!

[Patrick Moore]

UPS just called. Two days early, from Colorado.

Will probably replace the Swift with a Flite. Will attach Shimano PD 7410 pedals. Am waiting for shipment of Rene Herse Stampede Pass tires and TPU tubes.

I’ve never used a modern integrated indexed drivetrain (this one is Ultegra R8000 11 speed STI), and it all may devolve into silver cold forged friction with dt shifters, but I will give the R8000 group at least 100 miles. Also, must switch front brake to right lever.

More to come!

Alhamdulillah!

When thou didst not, savage, know thine own meaning,

But wouldst gabble like a thing most brutish,

I endowed thy purposes with words that made them known.

Beauty!

I am so pumped to hear about this one!  Stunner

Patrick, it’s gorgeous!!!! 

[John Rinker]

That's a sweet-looking ride, Patrick. Mabruk!

[John Dewey]

Beautiful indeed, Patrick. Hand-built by true artists, as close to perfection as we get in this life I’m quite sure. Does yours have bosses for DT levers? If so, even better. 

ROADEO was created more recently than my RAMB, but even after more than 2 decades and thousands miles I just can’t get enough. That deadly sin, envy, troubles me no more 👍😎

What good fortune, PM!

Your Rodeo is liken to a classic AC Cobra chassis with an LS2 power plant.

Thanks, everyone.

Patrick,

Great looking Roadeo! I can't wait to hear about how you think it fits into your ideal of a geared road bike after you spend some time riding!

Sadly, it appears that your Roadeo doesn't have DT shifter bosses. It's the same on my Roadeo. I believe Mark want the Roadeo to be more of a pure modern road bike, complete with integrated shifting. Either way, it is probably the one thing that makes me pull down my Rambouillet more often that the Roadeo... You could always mounted some clamp-on DT shifters or get bosses brazed on. Though that paint job looks immaculate I don't think I'd be a hurry to mess it up.
