I shall keep the post updated as I get more parts, so stay tuned.

Got the main piece, now to get the other parts.

Ah i didnt see the cad design of it on pinkbike.
Matches well, i bet you find something you want to change on it though!

Cheers Cyfa. Very true. I'll be changing the fork to a Kinesis Carbon DC07 fork later on. I also sold the stem pictured on the spec pic above. I'm getting an Easton stem for it.

Just a mock up build. The wheels are from my Viking retro bike.
