I've heard that the CK titanium headset is prone to creaking when coupled with a titanium frame.....
so I opted for the aluminium instead.

if and when i ever manage to get myself a ti frame. i'd be too tempted to put on as many ti bits as i could find/afford. including the ti CK hs. it be perhaps a bit silly of me, but i'd just live with the creaking! :roll:

That's nice and I like it, great job

 

[Neil G]

Great build, like to see how much that weighs

 

[nimbus]

Nicely done.

Also interested in that fork. Mind if I ask how long it is (axle to crown) and how much it cost?

 

[ekiborter]

roughly 16" or 450mm
cost me £100 iirc on ebay from J&L http://myworld.ebay.com/itsall4sports/
unfortunately this chap has now been suspended from ebay.

actually his account was closed the same day as my forks stem and barends arrived.
I'd have no problem dealing with him/them again. (I think ebay shut his account for completing a transaction outside of ebay). their loss.

roughly 16" or 450mm

16" = 406mm, 450mm = 17.7"

yes what he said ^^^^

sorry typo 405mm is what I meant to say.

Measure twice cut once! lol.

Cheers for that - I'd guessed you meant 405mm, rather than 450.

Good price. Keep us posted how they work offroad.

cheers

Just looking at the pics again

Think Vs would look tider with spacers changed round i.e arms closer to the tyres

Probably being too picky!
