Wow thanks for the comments guys, makes you feel like you’re doing something right at least.

Have since oickdd up an M900 rear hub and cassette so no doubt will be this weekends job.

Also anyone know what steerer tube size I’d need as most likely converting this to threaded and a quill stem.

I think it's 1 inch mate I got one exactly the same rc200 f2 but I haven't measured it's just what I read I new to this as well I have the same front derailleur as you can you use different ones and adapt them or are they hard to get hold of anybody else know

This week saw a couple of minor updates, M900 XTR seat post, rear hub and cassette. Hopefully get onto the stem and bar situation next couple of weeks.

For the Maguras: If you want a tidier method than cables ties try these:

I use that style, found them useless in the end, they're still in use on this photo but I resort to a better method on my bike.

Looking good mate did you build the wheel on the maguras I got them screw things that go in to cable guide then plastic things look like the black bit in a electric plug fuse goes in it and they stick on the top bar underneath hope that makes s nse

Pictures paint a thousand words!

I picked a set up myself, not sure if I like them or I’ve fitted them right though. Look a bit odd.

I actually built it at the breakfast table and tuned it in my Rockhopper. Seems to run true and have just done a good 10-15 miles to stress it in.

Nah I’ve been building my own wheels 30+ years, I still even ride the first set I ever built on another bike. Easy enough to do but plenty of tutorials on YouTube if you get stuck.

Another piece of the puzzle turned up today, these things are top notch!
