Thanks - I just hope I don't bend them! If I find some RC30's I'll put them on but that will be later on...

A few more bits bolted on. Seat post is 26.8mm so that's cool. It's just a cheapo one to get me rolling. Just slotting in the post brings it closer to life.

Am I the only one who thinks the citrus Mavics don't look quite right with gum-walls??
Don't get me wrong, I like the wheels and I like the tyres, just...
...not together

Yeah, i am loving the rims, but i'm thinking 'all black tyres' would show them off loads more, but thats just my opinion, nice looking ride and starting to come together
looking forward to the completion Jussa

Thanks chaps. We'll find out what it looks like on black soon. I'm aiming to get it finished and ready to ride for the 22nd Jan and won't want to use these amberwalls so i'll get some black ones.

Dummy build will be complete and rideable tomorrow; bars and seat skewer were the final requirements.
Can't believe the difference between old and new geometry when compared side by side.....

Got it all together today. Had a bit of a faff with BB and axle position causing granny ring to snag chainstay but all sorted. Front mech hits frame in granny ring position so need to sort that but it's certainly all rideable and ready for a full test tomorrow morning.
After next weeks race then it will come apart again for powder coating and tarting up. Will post full spec later as I'm doing this on the phone.

from what i'm led to believe, one was made in taiwan, the other hasnt been british for a long time & is now indian!
looks good, with some solid black tyres & fresh powder & decals it should look awesome. is the stem being powdered to match too?
