  • Cheers stedlocks, lots of nice builds happening at the mo.
    so for a quick update, it turns out the front braze on for the derailleur was quite badly bent out of shape, I have left it with my local shop to try and sort out, hopefully its not to much of a problem.

  • Tis finished, My LBS sorted the braze on for me and I managed to finish the build. Im really happy with it, it rides really nice and smooth and the flywheel effect from the disc is quite surprising, I wasn't expecting it to be as strong as that. Then I managed to go and break my hand so Im off the bikes for the next 4-6 weeks, bugger, but what can you do eh lol, I will take some decent pics of it tomorrow to show you guys.

  • the lights are a joke, beauty nevertheless!

    sort the saddle and bar angle tho

  • I'm the new owner of this bike, Jantrit built a faithful 90s TT bike and I bought it to use it for its original purpose.

    It soon became apparent that there were some advantages to be had by making some simple alterations. First off, the gearing; My legs were burning after a couple of miles with the original 12-18 block, and the 36t ring was redundant. Hello big llittle ring.

    Next was the position. I love those Nitto bullhorns but my position was just about the same as the drops on my road bike. That's fine, but this thing weighs a chunk more than my roadie so it wasnt realy earning its keep. In came the Angel bars and bar ends.

    Then a bunch of position adjustments. Thats a work in progress.

    A bloke from the club offered me a freehub disc for £80 so we went 9 speed and now it looks like this.

  • That thing is fantastic if I ignore the saddle angle.

  • Yeah sorry about that, aero positioning seems to be aesthetically challenging.

  • I need some extension and a drilled fork so I can TT on my lopro I think.

  • Really nice to see it being loved :)
