Titan Exklusiv - Shimano Ultegra build.

hi, slx for ££ ? please . very interested in getting one.

Sorry, not sure what you are referring to?

Has anyone rode on Conti Grand Prix Classics? Thinking of buying a set purely for aesthetics.

Or can anyone else recommend a fast tan wall tyre?

hi, i just wondered i can't find any info on it to say it's slx ? and how much a nos slx frame would cost ?
michelin classics or dynamics paneracer pasela [any one got a photo of these cont' mentioned]
can't be bad !

please don't mention michelin dynamic classics with conti classics.. the former is a 27tpi wire bead cheapo tyre (costs around 7-8 euros) whereas the latter is a 180tpi, 3 layer tyre with folding kevlar bead, very good puncture protection..

BTW, I have few mates who have used michelin dynamics, and they said, they would not use them anymore . very bad puncture protection, very harsh ride and high rolling resistance with bad grip.

Don't buy those :)

ok cheers,struck off. m a swiss firm importing italian made frames with no tubing id badges.

Cheers for convincing me they are the tyre of choice. Will be picking a pair up with my next paycheck. Glad to know their spec is up there and they are not just a good looking tyre.

I done some digging on my frame and worked out it's SLX. However not all Titans are. Frame pricing depends on a lot of different factors, not just one sweeping price.

yeah great build thread, and thanks one and all for the links. be great to see some pics of what
slx looks like inside ridges or grooves? slick or rough ? cheer's

Had a mid Winter cleanup. New bars in the post.

Also, trying to source a "stepped ferrule" for the rear derailleur cable. Found them at SJS but says they are out of stock. If anyone could point me in the right direction or has one laying about would be a huge help.

PM me.

Nice build! Very late reply about tyres but I've ridden grand prix classics for a bit and there's been nothing wrong with them (I'm no expert though). They also look great!

Cheers.

At the moment it's betweem them, Veloflex and Vittoria Corsa CX. It'll be next month now with my tax having to be paid... eughh.

IMO the GP classics' darker sidewalls would suit your build better.

Perfect. Cheers for the help.

Need new tyres and now thinking about a black saddle as well...

Most welcome!

Anyone have any info on these? NOS Picked up for a £10 at the LBS.

Sorry for the poor pictures.

love it..keep the pics flowing

Looking for either a black Turbo, Rolls, or Supercorsa saddle in decent nic. Opinions welcome as I've only ridden a Turbo.

Last piece of the puzzle before some new rims for the Summer.

What rims are you putting on it?

Not 100% yet, might make the jump to some sprint rims?

New Supercorsa saddle from @colnago_costa

Need to take it out for a proper spin for adjustments.

Found a couple of Pantographed stems... Can't decide if I should or not?

You should. The black panto one.

That's the one I's thinking. And it's the same length at my current setup... Could be the icing on the cake, minus a "new" Flite in better nic.

Thinking of switching out the Ultegra 6400 groupset with Dura Ace 7400. Any opinions on the difference, if it's worthwhile?
