Carbon 456 aka 'the dark destroyer' all built

I'd get a front mech type device, it would ruin the carbon quick if the chain dropped around the BB a few times on it.

Looks ace otherwise.
 
I've never had a problem dropping the chain on one up front bikes. Though I normally run the chain a little shorter than normal to maintain the tension a bit more.
 
You'll need a chain device. I use the superstar one on my C456. The chain looks a little on the long side?

I think I'll just pay the extra few quid and strap an actual mech on. At least that way it's there ready for when I finally decide to run a twin or triple up front...
 
Very nice indeed Steve! My carbon is pretty much all I'm riding through winter on a v similar set up to yours :cool:

Hope alls well!
 
Bit of an update...

New cranks/bb and new tyres.

Looking forward to getting out on it in the next couple of weeks...
