Festka One LT vs Festka Doppler

[Bely]

Did a search not much literature on both in the interweb... Wondering if anyone has any experience/input?

Thank you

Bely, you should buy every nice custom bike ever made.

I think he is a long way doing that?

But the One LT is there super light weight frame with THM fork with the integrated brakes (which sucks buy the way) and the other is a mixture of carbon and ti. ?

Yes totally different bikes... But we all want the same thing? Responsive yet comfy?

After speaking to Michael about the Doppler, that is the Festka I would buy.

Bely - I would second that on the THM with the Integrated Brake - I think you may have had one as well - It's really hard to use a wide rim with this work.

If you get the LT - use the THM CT.

Or get the Doppler with the CT. That would work as well.

Tough call... Ok so the fork I am in total agreement - just can't quite decide on the frameset..I had my heart set on the ONE LT but took the Baum out yesterday morning for what wasn't supposed to be long one and well it was smooth like butter and I just kept going... Enjoyed the ti very much...


This will be the stable by end of year

1) speedvagen (steel & carbon)
2) Baum (ti)
3) field (steel)
4) Argonaut (carbon)
5) Stinner (steel)
6) mosaic RT1 (ti)
7) festka (????)
Factor One (carbon)
9) Condor Italia RC (Alu)

Waiting with baited breath for the Argonaut!!!!

I spoke with the FESTKA guys this morning - they were saying Doppler!

Also - for anyone who cares - there will be a new series of Carbon frames/One series sometime later this year..

I'm torn between the Festka One and Asphalt, anyone has recommendations on that front?

[morrisond]

Bely,

Looking at your stable leads me to an easy suggestion.

You don't have a Stainless Bike. How could you let that happen?

XCR is a great Tubeset - it should ride like Ti but be a little more Snappy.

Festka's XCR Modern bike is stunning - with a THM CT of course!

Damn you are right...
