Shit dawg. Looking very good. This build has had its ups and downs but the finished article is great. You should be chuffed with yo'self.
And @Scilly.Suffolk makes a good point it should be sur la plaque for photos.

It's built!
Picked up the Nitto seatpost from @fidbod this evening. Thanks!
Unfortunately, the seatpost bolt is too long so I can't clamp it properly. Another mistake made: buy a bolt that is shorter than the OD of the clamp, not the same size as it. So a coke can shim is in place til the 19mm bolt is sourced.
Went round the block, adjusted gear indexing and saddle height then did my first ever drop bar taping. It went pretty well. As you can see from the pic, I had to put some blue tape on, in honour of this thread.
Not the best light for photos. But it's what I have right now.
