I can sympathise about the rare front mech thing. On a positive note, don't let anyone try to convince you to change saddles. That looks a very good example of the best saddle ever made!

It is my absolute favourite saddle :D it came as OE on one of my Konas and its the most comfy saddle ever

I used to use one on my track bike BITD....which I have just sold :( Should have kept it :roll:

E-type mechs are no problem, but be careful before you order anything else, as E-types are usually specified for a reason - e.g., that the seat tube has external butting that makes a band fitting unsuitable.

I'm with anthony on this one, I'd be tempted to use the eclamp to avoid any possible crimping of the wafer thin 853 and any possible damage of that paint. also mans you can use that beautiful carbon fibre xtr e-clamp mech!

It's certainly not a mount for a wheel to convert the pull of a mech - totally the wrong position
 
Well I decided it would be a shame to not spec the correct mech so I've got an XTR one on its way :)

Next on the search list is a decent set of wheels with silver rims as Cherrybomb is definately right about the black rims and tyres :)

I've already spent more on a couple of bits than I did for the frame :shock: :lol:
