Kinesis (I think) carbon Cross build

Bought this about 6 weeks ago as a frameset that was a bit tired. It was bought from a Kinesis employee who beleives it was a team bike from around a decade + ago for the Kinesis Morvelo team.

Had been in a container for a number of years and the rather nice TRP Eurox magnesium calipers had seized to the studs so had them removed and new studs threaded in. Then the top tube cable guide rivet broke, so had that bonded back on. New headset bearings along the way and built up with 1x10 105 gear and my set of (tired but functional) Hunts.

Finished last week and it's a hoot to ride! Looking forward to less soggy/boggy weather and taking out for a proper ride. On the road it's great.

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:

That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.
