Sooo, a bit of an update.
I'd only done maybe 400 miles on it as it was but there were a few niggles. The mudguards didn't play nicely with the tyres, the wheels were flexy and rubbish and the old 10 speed shifters were a bit baggy. I've just upgraded the cervelo to Etap so I've got a spare 11 speed 105 groupset to put on this. Also have a spare pair of trp hy/rd that came off the GT when I swapped to full hydro so they'll be going on too.
Perhaps the biggest change is the swap to 650b wheels and horizons. The wheels shown are only temporary and I might have to break my rule of not spending anything on this to get a rear hope 35 to match the spare front I've got. But at least I know the tyres fit.
So it'll be a weekend of swearing whilst trying to find spare cables and stuff that doesn't fit as I try to fit the groupset...
