Thanks man.

Annoyed with the mismatched brakes so I’ve changed it all up. I couldn’t help myself.

A very neat Mafac hanger and some Paul’s Fire Balls has set it all off.

Box 1 levers and SRP Ti brakes are now on. The perfect match as far as I can see.

Everything else remains the same.

And now I’m officially done.

another quality build; well done mate - your spare parts box seems to be full of nice stuff

Thank you there’s a couple of bits knocking about. Years of accumulation. It’s all coming to a head though and lots is for sale on the bay.

Most amazing Ti bike I’ve seen my friend. Outstanding job on every detail

Updated further.
Amp fork, more recent rear mech and King Ti because why not. Everyone says don’t install Ti in Ti but I’ve never had a problem. Plus I’m a maverick.
Awaiting the correct size bolt to install the fork mounted brake cable stop custom made and shipped from Italy by a CNC master.
Real Design titanium cassette with red spacers and TNT lockring concludes today’s fettling.

Looks decent.

Chain is off as it’s inside - need to cut the brake cable (lent the snips to a friend) but the hanger is on. It’s mint! Bespoke made by an Italian machinist and sent as a gift “for passion” of the build. Legend. The retro MTB community is strong.

Still only weighing 9.15kg with chain.

Chuffed to say the least.
