How is this build progressing? Will the Vicious go back to SS when it is done? This bike looks so awesome with the matching fork, very very 8)

Slowly slowly...the hubs will arrive from Parcelforce tomorrow after some :x import duty has been paid. I'm not sure the stem and bars will be appreciated. I have some black LP Turbines which I will use.
Yes...the Vicious will return to SS 8)

Hubs arrived...very pretty, rear is a bit heavy but feels like it is machined from one lump of stainless steel
Now then, choice of rim and spoke :?:

This is looking lovely. I liked the black rims, but think this frame will go well on (almost) anything....
