  • I did want to make you happy, but you said you are miss the 'L'... so... but it does make sense for fine adjustments after the build is completed etc etc...

    You see I might have an issue with not matchy matchy... my finishing kit is the same brand and I have even bagged myself a custom set of BB / headset / hubs... That said, I wouldn't mind have a different brand crankset to a Shimano or SRAM everything, but mixing SRAM and Shimano seems a bit odd on the matching front... it's probably just me...

    Can you or any LBS get Middleburn? Or do I have to get it direct?

    Thanks @edscoble

  • Can you or any LBS get Middleburn? Or do I have to get it direct?

    Middleburn went bust a while back and were bought-up by BETD.

    When I spoke to them towards the end of last year, they were just selling-off existing stock but ultimately plan to start manufacturing again.

    It's worth giving them a call to see what they have knocking about, you might snag a bargain.

  • Cheers, I knew about the BETD. Anyway, I had a very pleasant conversation with Paul today, I think he might be the owner, not sure. The don't have any 165mm of anything at the moment, but they are about to start production again and will have limited stock in 165mm of their RS7/RS8 X Type in black in a couple of months time. But if I wanted silver, he could just polish a silver one up for me.

    Their RS8 has been saying "BUY ME! BUY ME! BUY ME NOW!" all afternoon! And my mind is very weak at the moment.
