Not really a Retro Project unless you call 2005 Models retro but it finally arrived yesterday all the way from Arizona ,i have to say its looking rather sexy in a nice shade of blue .

Frame is made of Reynolds 853 which was absolute must in my buying factors ,fork is handmade by American frame builders Kelly ,mow yes its a CROSS bike and i have not come across many of these in Readers bikes so hopefully thsi might be of interest to some of you .

Not sure if i am going to go geared on this beauty as i have a full ultegra groupset lying about OR bite the bullet and go single speed!!

I am on a mission to build this up with some anodized red bits to match the CK Headset ,seem to be having trouble finding some small Red bottle cage bolts at the moment .

I am pretty open to suggestions and ideas so fire away and share your thoughts .

My 1st proper bike was a crosser. I like them a lot. Actually too bad I don't have one in my stable currently :roll: Of modern bikes I generally like crossers most.

Looks like it will become a nice ride, Matty ! Frame made from the right materials, a good color ...it makes my heart go a little faster :) Good luck with the build.
 
That looks very tidy indeed, really classy.

For what it's worth I'd go with the geared build
