The Swedish custom specialist's first road bike build is a true tailor-made bike dream
“Over the years I’ve been riding pretty much everything, from BMX and trials to downhill and racing marathons, but road for some reason just never happened," Dangerholm said.
The special effect paint is called ”Liquid Gold”, and gives the bike its name. It shifts dramatically from being completely transparent, allowing the black carbon fibre to be visible as if just clear coated, flipping between green, gold and in some angles even blue tones. In low light, the bike becomes much more discreet with glossy olive tones.
Syncros offers several seat post variants for the Foil, all featuring the same super-thin aero design. Except for different setback options, the Duncan SL Aero seat posts come in either regular or CFT versions. For this build Dangerholm chose both, and with different saddles. The brake callipers are the C22 from the German brake manufacturer Trickstuff, often featured on Dangerholm’s mountain bike builds. Trickstuff also makes the brake disc rotors used on this bike, which are the Dächle Ultra Light. The front is 160mm and the rear is 140mm, both fastened with centre lock adaptors from Bike Ahead Composites.
