Minor update:
Purchased some more parts for the build/overhaul.
Cassette: 8 speed HG50 (13-26)
Chain: 8 speed chain
Front mech: 7410 (just to match the front chain set)
Handlebars: Nitto M106 38cm (big rep for @LeMesjeu for these)
Wanted to get a old school DA cassette, they are 100grams lighter but consider the weight of the frame and the cost of these cassette on eBay it was a no brainier to get a cassette for less than £20 instead of £200.
In the meantime the frame with with Carbon Repair Bicycle.
They agreed it was a crack but it’s ‘normal’ for this period of frame and in time it will get worse. But I decided to get this mended for piece of mind when riding and it will be nice to get the drive side issues sorted before the rebuild.
Lead time would be anything up to a month due to the paint shop apparently is jammed packed and has a longer leading time compared to the repair side of the shop.
