Slowly slowly...the hubs will arrive from Parcelforce tomorrow after some

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

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 :?:
