Diamant Thron build

Using this to document the build mainly for myself (work in progress)

Bought the frame, fork, headset and BB off Blakey1989

Original pic:

As i recieved:

.......

It came generously with a record bb and a record headset so thought i had better keep it campy (got the parts off Laurence Cardiff on here)

the rear zonda he threw in for free as it is worn as but its got me on the road atleast.
Athena ergo shift
Record rear mech
Record front mech
Record cranks (with 42t stronglight ring)
New veloce calipers (didnnt trust old dodgy ones)

had to throw what i could together to see the geo, suuuuch tight clearance on the rear wheel (fuck yes)

got some bontrager r2s on trade super cheap

mint

promised myself i wouldnt use old parts i have lying around but couldnt resist...

3TTT Daccordi panto stem
Cinelli Giro D Italia 42cm bars
shit seatpost
shit photo

and then a few weeks later.....
cables

had to represent giro d italia.....

and chain and saddle torn off my old bike!

Nice!

How long is that seatpost?

Good question, the old aero ones are usually quite short... Would be interested in a 300mm aero post.

It's actually 270mm? strange.. at this point i am now running a super shitty Evans own brand one as i found the aero one too short and was running it just below the minimum insert.

if anyone knows of a 27.0mm seatpost which is 300mm long then what/where to get????

.

This might be a long shot but if you still have this and are ever looking to move it on I would be interested, I 'm still kicking myself for not getting it when I had the chance.

Hey mate,
I actually sold this on to a friend a few months back, definitely the prettiest bike ive ever owned
