Cracking bikes.

Looks really nice HoKe.

Fitted a new 47T chainring to the 4T and put the HED3 back on.

Running 47x17 now so it should be skid central.

Also moved up the stem at the top of the spacers stack.

Just finished my first road bike build yesterday. Was done on a budget (sub-£200), many of the parts are shit and I appreciate, objectively, that it is ugly and the saddle angle needs looking at. But, the intention was to increase skills and get a ridable second bike and I'm quite pleased (and strangely proud) of the results. Got a feeling this will be the first build of many...

^ It doens't look bad at all.

You should move the stem to the top of the spacer stack and flip it down, it should keep the bar height at about the same level.

The build would also suit a 'slimline' saddle better in my opinion.

I need a rear mech,setups, a Adamo, to put my columbus 1" muscle forks, bottle cage tips, a red vittoria tube and a right sram shifter.

Cheers - will play around with the stem, got it for peanuts in a CRC sale I think, would prefer something black and less obnoxious... keeping an eye on classified for something that will fit. Saddle is something I bought for my GF's bike and she didn't get on with it, might actually have something black and slimmer that came stock with my genesis. Didn't particularly find this one that comfortable anyway so was thinking about switching...

Looks like my Genesis. I've given up on Fizik bar tape though, I decided I enjoyed feeling my fingers.

Thanks 4 da burn!

i really like the fizik tape. secret is these on the drops.......

and not having the supple hands of a wuss

I think the secret is actually your 'short, fast rides' rather than 'actual rides'.

Oww!

Tally is 4th one on the track bike (design fault)

And I think you just jinxed it.

Very much like the sound of that, this will end up quite a lot like how I want my road bike to be I think.

I keep hearing that ..
