My newly assembled tourer. Got the entire bike for 50quid, 531 magnum tubes, mavic/LX wheels. Mostly XT/LX components.
Got some cheapish gusset forks as they had a similar A-C and then Rob from quirk cycles brazed on some extra bosses on the frame and in the forks.
Few things need sorting, cabling is very messy, unhappy with the stem mounted canti stop, have a newer rear mech to put on and I think may have to move the chainring to the inside of the cranks and put a guard on for a better chainline in higher gears.
Fun though, and super comfy ride with the big marathons.

Need to get some paniers and get touring.
