Can't wait to see this finished.

It's going to be stunningly understated. :cool:



And coming to Mayhem perhaps ?

Definitely Nick! Such a lovely day here, I wish I were riding it now!

Re:

Good evening folks ;)

After a late night in the workshop, fitting cables, chain, and getting the chainset together and on, around 11.30pm, I got up early to do the final bits. Some helitape on the chainstay, thanks Paul, along with cleaning up the bottle cage.

It is now complete. So here are some photos for you all.

The front mech is a bit close to the chainring, but they don't touch, so okay I think.

See what I mean about the cables? I could cross them on the top tube, but fear of gorotting myself in the event of an unexpected get off, persuaded me against this course of action.

Pity about the weather on the coast, I was hoping to get photos in the Sun.

I hope to be meeting a friend for lunch tomorrow, and will take it on it's maiden ride then, hopefully. I just hope the dry weather holds

Re:

Veeeery nice.

Don't worry about the cables, I've had one or two like that, in fact my White Spider might have been one of them.

I'll be interested to see what you think of the way it rides.
