Seat post could do with a polish maybe ? But looking good ! Its a huge bike and i'm not much a fan of the old style ergo levers, but a nice bike overall ! The shamals were the right choice.
The Somec, the yellow one ? I managed to sort out the derailleur/shifter issue but my chain is too short so will have to update that.
And yeh the C40 is still in storage for now, I've been waiting to get more storage to build a couple of bikes up ;)

Sorry for late reply, but just finished buulding it and got a quick snap before dark.
With all that chrome it had to be a silver groupset build to match the silver wheels, and had to be gumwall tyres. Shame there's going to be no sunshine till midweek so shiny sunshine pics will have to wait.
Parts are a mish mash of what I had already including the stem which I'd prefer was silver, but I'm not going to bother changing it now. Mostly Chorus group tho FD and brakes are newer generation ones.
@ArthurDent so you finished the Somec? Didn't you have a C40 in progress too?
