  • Verrrrrryy nice.

  • loving that (bar the saddle)

  • 2007 is all about looks, not comfort. Kashimax pls....

  • I was there when you were building it in the shop - still can't over the BB on that thing haha

  • Really nice! Those bars <3

    really don't like the saddle, know lots of peoplehavesaidthatsoxz

  • Get a TT protector
    (The kashimax kind)

  • Not going to use that in the rain that's for sure, strictly a summer bike, or else UN55 all the thing.

  • Get a TT protector
    (The kashimax kind)

    There's a reason why I didn't is because the grip prevent the top tube from getting dented.

  • Hence the italics.

    Were they cheap before the apocolypse?

  • They were £20 from Condor, so not really.

  • Fin.

  • Very nice Ed. Still enjoying it? NJS with drops and hoods really is awesomely comfortable.

  • So I coulda haz those wavey bars then?

    Looks decent aside from the godawful saddle.

    Could you not at least put a brooks on it? Would be slightly less offensive...

  • Skinny tyres would be nice for some Summer speed...

  • Only if I want to go slow.

  • Your progress in saddle position looks similar to my experience.
    >>>>>>> SMP thread...

  • Steep seat angle mean saddle finally look right on the middle of the clamp.

  • Looks a perfect setup and purely on aesthetics it nice to see the composit (over the hell) on there. Are those record levers? If so, Ooi, how have you fixed the dummy lever?

  • Just the old Tektro one before they discontinued it (now branded as Cane Creek), shape are near identical.

  • I suppose you could use a short bit of brake cable - pull it through the hole so it comes out into the cable groove on the plastic body,put a small cable tie on it and the snip the cable, snip the end of the cable tie, tape over and hey presto no floppy lever?
    I haven't tried this but just thought of it...

  • No, you're floppy.

    In other news, order a cheap coaster rear wheel for it.

    Time to put flat bar on and bring it back for shit and giggle.

  • Photos by a brick wall please, for measurement purposes.

  • Prediction: as per Ed's cycling development in general, this will have bottle bosses, mudguards and a derailleur hanger by the end of the year
