Haha cheers lads...
You know I thought the perches were wrong but they seem to work fine for me as they are...
Also I really cant be bothered to change it.
The blocks are far as Im concerned have the arrows pointing in the direction the wheel turns. :?
Scant I love those Serfas grips too they are the BEST IMHO...
Do they still make them?

there should be an R and an L and front and rear indication on them? something like that. the long end should point to the front on the front and to the back on the back, ie. you have the front ones on the back and vice versa. shimano had this idea for more stopping power and less squeeling or something like that.

I like the rear mech on there, but think a few more red bits would help - keep it fairly subtle - spoke nipples, maybe chainring bolts, and I can't help thinking black chainrings (or even just the outer?)

Lovely though.
