• Cheers lads! It's rideable, and close to being ready. Needless to say it's absolutely batshit crazy, but surprisingly stable and not very heavy either.

    Will add different grips, LX-563 or similar (black) cranks and probably a DX rear mech as this STX doesn't clear the 32T rear cog properly, even with the B-screw aaaall the way in. Oh, and I need some spacers beneath the stem ofc.

  • Get a silver seatpost instead of black cranks imo.
    I quite like a mixture of black and silver parts.

    The proportions of this build look very good. Would ride!

  • Thanks!
    I have a friend who hoards retro MTB components and he always has a ton of black LX parts, hence why I wanna go that way. Silver seatpost is a good idea though, will have a look around.
