new built out for a first spin

[dyna-ti]

I got a cheap 8 speed set up off ebay and thought i'd fit it and try out my latest steed ,check brakes, steering ,chainline etc
I also wanted to hear the king buzz that the hubs make
I'm very impressed with the fork ,tracks great [i am, going very easy to start with though],the ti bars are a little flexy for me and i may change to a minimal riser,saddle is comfy enough and my weight isnt too far forward,bike doesn't feel too cramped for my 6'3"ness
The front brake judders a bit and in the wet may squeal but im hoping the ceramic rim and the addition of a matching booster will lessen this considerably
its my on a ti frame and i must say how comfy yet inspiring it feels.
im mostly happy

i intend,when money allows to find and fit a [blue #]Paul V's+levers[i think its 'monolites'im after ,[ blue] Paul rear mech and front[ if i could find 1],a syncros post ,a blue cooks middle 36T,and a king h/set

Yeah, King hubs make a cool sound
Are you using ceramic pads? They may cut down on squeel, although my P20 wails like a banshee at times, think there is some play in the brakes :roll:

Looks mint mate! Youve done a great job!

Far from finished ,brakes have to go they just dont suit,and the sram x-7 is just a stopgap
But so far it rides nice and thats the main thing
Rear king possibly needs a new axle theres a tiny bit of play in it ,im not happy about,its torqued up properly but still has that little bit
Cheers for the comments i was fearing the worst

Sorry for the poor pic ,it helps hide the steep saddle angle i like to ride on ,not every1's cup of and makes it look pretty mad
When i sort out the gearing ,and im happy to show ,ill post a pic in natural daylight

I seem to remember Haggis had a Paul rear mech for sale ,time to cut a deal

One thing i'd like to ask king hub users
The noise the rear makes has been said to make a loud buzzing noise
But it isnt a continuous buzz but a buzzzzzzzzz buzzzzzz sound more akin to a wurring,i hope to god this is what they mean :roll:
