I will tri with this saddle

Rolls

Tidied the commutertron up, new rims.

I think he means the little metal strip at the back of the rolls

And the diamond at the front of the saddle.

Yes exactly. It is too ornamental. Like giant letters on carbon wheels. It is too loud and comercial for my taste.

In sled mode. To cut the bars or not to cut... hmmm

never cut the bars ever

Bike stand mini project complete - cost about 40 euros.

Sooo good!

Killing it m8. did you get the rack/mudguards painted?

TA. Nope I will keep components black/silver. Rack is stainless. Painting it would be waste of money. Guards are plastic and cannot be powder coated. It is still a tight budget build...

I'll show it off at east beers soonish

(looking for camera charger)

I am very happy about the Landrover look.

Looks great, awesome little build. Matching rack would look killa

Thanks @Gaston

@TurtleRecall I don't think I took the picture at a funny angle? Saddle/bar drop is pretty normal for the way I ride.... #whoneedsalowerbackanyway

Lovely - how did you pull that together?

Ikea?

Normally 26" loooks a bit feeble on big frames but that's strong.

As you may have gathered, I'm a fan.

I definitely need to get my Genesis and cannondale painted.

Looking great!

@Hulsroy that is rowdy. I throw that work around a lot, but that really is rowdy.

Looking for a dynamo hub for V-brake 1x MTB shopper, front and rear light need to be sorted too.
Any recommends?

Looking at a Shimano DH-T675 together with Supernova lights, but pricey.

*can only find battery powered lights on DX so it seems

Thanks to @Cupcakes for the Thomson x2 stem a while back, and due to my OCD for matchymatchy I finally got a masterpiece seatpost as well for the beginning for a slow overhaul/adjustments for the all-city NBD
