Here is my new Reynolds 853 29er in the early stages of construction.
It is being built by my buddy Pat Banks at Limit Fabrications here in Norwich.
It will have a Lefty fork, Shimano Alfine 8 rear hub with Middleburn cranks.
The dropouts are Paragon Machine Works adjustable dropouts to allow me to use the Alfine hub without a tensioner.
It is being welded fully this coming week and will be ridden in it's first event on the 6th September,then used for everything from XC races to 70 mile Sunday rides.
To say I am excited is an understatement.
