After searching for what seems like an eternity, always being in the wrong place at the wrong time and missing out on quite a few 300's I finally got my hands on one, big thanks to Fudd ;)

hubba hubba!

Already collected a few bits and got a few more currently in the post too including some sexy Hope Tech M4's 8)

Not too sure about the length of the stem though, see what it feels like when its all built

Next mission is to get my money back on a set of RC39's that went 'missing' in the post (yeah thanks CityLink!) to secure another set I've managed to line up ;) 8)

Thanks, yeah it is lovely isn't it! :lol:

The 300 was the final evolution of the Pace square tubers and the only model with the carbon seat tube, they should start making their frames like this again, much sexier than the stuff they make now, well imo anyway 8)
