So, road bike should be getting built this weekend! It's been a long time coming, but I'm back on the bike after recovering from fractured verterbrae and the weather is looking up, excited to get onto something other than the Boardman.
I got a DA headset through the forum, the crown race is fucked but I have a less damaged one at home I'm going to try and straighten out. Also, I was a bit worried about the reach with the stem, struck lucky and have managed to procure this, 110mm one from rodabod, which should be perfect for now. I'll probably switch to the longer one later in the summer when I'm less fat...
Needs a bit of a clean, a new bolt and a top cap, but will fit!
So build will consist of...
Donohue 853 frame
Woundups
Dura Ace 7800 group
DT Swiss wheelset
Ultremo ZX tyres
Spin Ti post
Selle Italia SLC
Grammo Ti stem
Nitto M106 bars
DSP Tape
DA 7410 headset
and some atacs, until I get round to ordering speedplays...
I'm excite.
