It's bloody finished! Apart from the fact I'm using a square taper FSA chainset until I can get the SRAM one back.
I will take some better photos outside another day.

Been following this with interest mainly with the wheel and brake selection as currently sorting out a cross/disc build myself.

What frame are you using? If I'd not got this on special offer, I'd have one for a kinesis decade tripster, or a crosslight. The headtube on this frame is potentially a little short for my legs, I'm sure it'll be fine though.
I start my new job at Stif in the morning. 1st ride probably Wednesday on my day off, 1st commute later in the week.
