@anidel yes it is Chiswick House. I live in a little flat so swung by a mate's place near the house to wash the bike. Figured a nice sunny day at Chiswick House would be a good spot for a few pictures.
@wildwest I was going to fabricate a new mount for the SRAM X7 trigger shifter to accommodate the thicker diameter bull horn bars. Basically put the trigger shifter and dirty harry levers up on the flat section of the bars. I never got very far along on this plan, so I have no idea if it would have worked :)

Purpose built fast commuter - £250 OBO
Posted by
Hi, I'm leaving the UK soon and getting rid of my city commuter bike.
The frame is a debadged 58 cm Graham Weigh aluminium road frame and carbon forks built up as a 1x9. I'm a former MTB racer, frame builder and mechanic. Built this up at London Bike Kitchen a couple years back. Stiff, light and very fast. Maybe 500 miles of commuting to work before I was switched to home working.
Won't part or ship, come pick it up in London near Turnham Green Station. £250 or best offer.
