For a 98' Orange P7, black preffered. Figured it was worth posting here since more people see it. Currently using an Easton seatpost thats 27.2mm shimmed with a Cane Creek shim to 29.6.

Messed with some stuff courtesy of @bikeworkshop . Swapped out the stem, tilted the bars back a bit, and moved my saddle to the middle of the rail since it was all the way to the front for some reason. Feels much better but still a bit too low. 35 degree stem should arrive Monday. So much more...

Indeed. It's my first time building a bike from the frame up!

An update on this. Took it (halfway) across the Peak District last week. What a journey! Ended abruptly with me not realising wind is a factor when pitching a tent. I bonked during the day and the wind then collapsed my tent at around 3am after about an hours sleep. Had absolutley no will to...

How much?

For a Orange P7, only one on eBay UK!

How come?

Interesting. Well, I'll be able to rotate the bar forwards/backwards and cut the steerer tube to achieve that I hope. Don't think I can afford another stem! Unless I buy one of those cheap adjustable ones.

Wouldn't an 80mm stem drastically increase the reach though? And I get what you mean about the feel. I'm guessing through experience that is negated.

Just plucked the spokes, seems about in accordance with what you said. Straightneing the saddle helped a lot! Feels a lot more stable. I see people run the nose up on a lot of touring bikes, is that worth giving a go? My arms are about 4-6cm away from the bars. The bars I've got on the way...

It only has play when it's not at its H/L stops. Makes sense. Something else I noticed was that my spokes seem "loose". They are all the same-ish tension and I did get the wheels trued. The spokes on my other bike are much much tighter though. Something that needs fixing? Photos:

Update(s) on this. I've put it all together and done all the cables. Ridden it to and from work about 4 times and I'm enjoying it. On my Kona I don't usually like to stand on the pedals, but on this I find myself standing on them much more! The saddle is really annoying me, wish I had the money...

What a frame! Keen to see this come together.

That would be great thanks. Didn't know they did dual pull!

Title. Need it asap so happy to pay for 24 tracked shipping!

Sorted now, forgot to update. Thanks anyways.

Hmm, mine has a forward facing slot and the current clamp on it is 34! I have to push it super tight to get it to hold the post properly though so not sure. Great build by the way! Love all the component choices.
