@PhilPub, yeah I hear ya, its got that same kinda tone to it. I ended up getting the light blue which I think will colour match best. Also looking to get these to match too ha - http://modculture.typepad.com/.a/6a00d83451cbb069e20168ebfddcc3970c-800wi

@IR, not sure. Its not magnetic but when I flick it, it makes a different noise to the rest of the wheel. Not sure how that helps but yeah. Im thinking to go with one reverse lever on the left (for asthetics) rather than the right though. Something like this -
I thinking to get a new brake lever. Current ones a are some dia compe gran compe but would prefer something nicer. Something like these modolo ones maybe?

They would have to have the option to be routed internally. If you have some brakes with white/grey hoods and silver levers let me know.

@drøn Yeah I get that 'benotto wannabe' feel with the blue. Will see how it looks as i've ordered the blue ones now. Once I get some moser bars Ill get some orange tape for a brakeless cockpit. If I was to do black, I might aswell get grey to match the wheels and the Silva straps heading my way. Blacks a bit boring. Not racist, sorry.

Tape and straps arrived. Found a file in my kitchen closet and filed down the chainring bolts which means this should be ready soon. I taped the bars just now and fitted the brake. I like the blue but doesn't look so great at night. It should look 100 times better tomorrow morning.
Cable housing was too long, cut it and guess what.. I managed to cut it too short! Tried to save it but got angry and moved on to fitting the crankset. I don't know why, but I despise doing the cables for brakes. I get easily frustrated.
Currently on 17x46 which is alright but would rather a 47 on the front for moar skidz in brklss mode. Campagnolo chainrings aren't cheap so gonna see how it rides then decide whablow.
Any saddle recommendations?

Flite!!

46/17 and 47/17 have the same number of skid patches.
-

^ 47/17 has 34 if you're an ambi-skidder no?
Flite, but if you're not keeping it on the continent - Fujita Conpy.

Will see how what I can find in the next couple weeks. Just won a 'TA Porte Bidon' on ebay so I can look more like \/ Water bottle cage I must have for spfg rounds. Gotta keep hydrated.

That bike would look lovely with a Unicanitor saddle, imo.
Yes that's a Super Record post I believe.

Yessss, just ride up the a5 to asda, speak nicely and they'll do it in like 20 minutes for a £2.

I would but took it to snappy snaps in k.t, if its the same machines etc. then it will be pretty decent. Was the only place I used when I was younger and didn't have access to proper equipment. Ready in an hour still!

you don't look like i imagined you to be. there's more difference between chili and china then two letters right..?! ;)
What sort of braking surface does your ambrosio have?
After having a quick test of mine I'd recommend some super soft pads.
