    pedals arrived from Poland. SR track, french threaded, really good nick:

    kalloy post too short (still available people who wanted to buy it!) so picked up a really light planet x superlight on offer. got a concor light from a friend. i've never ridden on one but like the look, so it'll be what makes the (first) finished build:

    fitted a beastly 150mm pro chrome - part of the planet x order - and some alps industrial company 'road champion' drops i had. they're really narrow at 38. like the saddle, i'll see how they feel once the built:

    so the stem and bars aren't 80s but i don't really care; the wheels aren't and never will be.

    i installed a 107 iso bb (113 shown) and there was chainring rub, so i've ordered a 111 centaur which i really hope will give enough clearance. quite worried about the chainline when the cranks are on. the phil cog sits narrow, so spacers may be needed. not the end of the world.

    • bottom bracket
    • pedals (french thread required, planning clips and straps)
    • post (27.2 with 20cm free above insertion)
    • saddle (not too fussed as this will be a short ride bike)
    • stem (needs to be long as the TT is short for me at 56cm, instead
      of a 59cm. any suggestions for a 140 1" quill at 0deg? i.e. right
      angle)

    • bars and tape (will decide once stem clamp known)
    • lockring
    • tyre i can fit on rear wheel
