V nice.....makes me want to get my Shaka's on.....as it were

Thanks Drew,

Especially for the help, and some of the parts.....

Obviously yours was the original inspiration, and hopefully I'm doing this one proud...

Shaping into an epic build Steve, really liking it.

I'm loving it Mark,

Only really a full set of Compact (94pcd) chainrings and a chain away from completion now....

Got some Oury's to match the tyres too but they'll be last on, as I know they're a pig to keep clean.. :roll:

Wouldn't like to be pinned down 100% on that, but imho I think they are (the steerer's are, for sure, and the legs are stupid-light on their own, so only a guess really.

 

[marin man]

They look a bit titaniumy to me :?

 

[GT-Steve]

Wish I had a fancy bit of equipment to tell, 100% :cry:

 

[marin man]

Try to cut through one of the legs....if it makes your hacksaw blunt then yep.....if they cut real easy then they are alloy

 

[GT-Steve]

Just blunted the dremmel, definitely Ti......

Seriously tho :roll: I wish I had something to tell conclusively..

 

[marin man]

I dont know either,but if they are the same colour inside then they may be as the anodizing (if they are alloy) does not always cover both sides as nicely.

You're doing McMahon more than proud mate..... This one will be a very nice variation to mine....eg. with sus forks.. Those Steely Danz fit better with the frame than my polished ones.... :x

I'm keepin my eyes on this....

regarding the forks, when in doubt, get a second one that's Ti for sure!
