Moots Vamoots RSL with SRAM Red, Lightweight Wheels, SRM 7950 crankset
Neil at Palo Alto Bicycles setup the Vamoots RSL test bike with my wheels, crankset and pedals. I would not run SRAM Red, but that’s how the test bike arrived. The bike was pretty beat, and my wheels were filthy from winter riding, so this is a well used rig.
Note that on this test bike, the head tube is not the oversized 44mm variant.
Moots Vamoots RSL — head tube and fork
The fork paint matches the titanium perfectly. The titanium stem is a pleasing continuation of tone from the head tube, which on this test bike was the standard size, not the oversize 44mm.
Moots Vamoots RSL — rear stays and seat tube
The pencil-thin (well, a thick pencil) rear chainstays are made of 6/4 titanium.
