Right, so, the GT build is entering the final 'buying shit' stage and we should be ready to put all my lovely shiney bits on the frame in the next couple of weeks - however I'm still missing a saddle and tbh I'm not sure what to buy. My previous Kona had a big padded womans saddle and I hated...

Evening all.... Trying to start getting together some bits and pieces for my Bonty frame (when she gets here!). Need a set of Tange Switchblades, 1" threaded and with 140mm of steerer... Any red anodised parts - have picked up brake levers, skewers and chainring bolts - need anything...

WOOOO HOOOOO!! Totally and utterly wasnt exepcting this to happen tonight! Some of you may have heard me mention a Bontrager Race Lite frame thet was on Ebay.com a few weeks ago that we missed out on because the seller couldnt figure out how to approve us to bid (auction was for USA only)...

gggrrrrrr! I need a rant and I know you lot will understand... ever since I had to admit the Bontrager frame I had was too big and sell it on I have been looking for a tiny, ickle little Bontrager to build up. Dunno why but I want a Bontrager, nothing else will do! Have seen 2 on Ebay in...
