Hi, been busy with other projects but SPRING!!!!!(kinda) its here so figured get this bike finished. Been collecting parts over winter so started getting it together. I am still waiting on the DA brifters to finish and hoping to use it for the London Classic in a couple of weeks time. So some pics, I decided not to go down the SS route for this bike but still considering a single chain-ring, as I love the shape of the bike. The front mech does seem to spoil the look but for the moment, Dura-Ace Groupset and Mavic SSC Carbone wheels seemed to be the way to go. Please note the gold Ti skewers and FSA rings are not going to feature on the finished bike.
I was going to run this with downtube shifters but most of my Lo Pro,s have this cog swapping system and it can be a pain. This bike was a cross between aesthetics and being user friendly as I intend to use it regularly.
