Ti itch... well scratched!

So what's the weight of frame(s), bar & seat post? Love the seat stays of both bikes.
Ps) I heard horror stories of USE's Ti spin stix (which were of siilar design to yours) undoing because of the twist of the Ti skewers, make sure both ends are as well greased as poosible!!!

MTB up & running
I've slapped some bits I had on the MTB frame to get it going. Still need to procure a pair of Thumbies to get it to 3 x 10 & finish it off. Have a look:
Unfortunately, during assembly I discovered that the 31.8 x 680mm Ti bulge bar was drawn out to 21.5mm instead of 22.2 during manufacturing so i've sent it back for replacement. :evil: :roll:
Tyre clearance is killer!
Pretty happy with it so far. Now to get it dirty... :twisted:

Thanks for the kind words Guys.
Yeah, i'm pretty happy but will be happier when I get the Ti bars & thumbies on it. The completed package should come in under 20lb which is better than i'd hoped for. Now I just need to find a half-day to ride the bloody thing! :cry:
