• Looking good so far... nothing quite the torturous anticipation of being so close to the finish line.

  • You're not wrong, got very little sleep last night, should sleep tonight now I know all is well with the bb and associated threads

  • Yes! Thank you thank you

  • And all over a bike, no less!

  • It's pretty much the only thing I do lose sleep over.

  • Final decision has been made, Spesh Roubaix bartape in shocking pink flavour until next spring, then I'll go with one of the Newbaums.

  • Grabbed one of these, thought a new bike deserved a new pump.

  • That’s quick for Stayer! Took them three weeks to ship mine last time. Bike looking ‘glorious’ to adopt Marcus’ lingo. Nice pump too. Thinking of a Topeak one for the Carrier.

    In Sam's defence, I think his hand is now not broken anymore. 🙃

  • Bartape, chain, pedals, and mudguards away from done (or at least rideable).

  • I actually love the DIY flap! Beats the boring ones I made out of a black plastic folder.

  • Ta, don't know how long it'll last, it's fairly thin/flexible, but it cost nowt to make, and it's not like I'm gonna run out of donor tubs.

  • Bar tape away from done.

  • That's well nice!

  • Cheers both.
    Apparently there may be an outside chance of some sunshine late morning tomorrow, hopefully I'll get chance for some outdoor snaps.

  • Looks brilliant

  • Few outdoor pics.

  • Beautiful, love it

  • Phwoar, that paint comes out a really nice blue-grey in daylight! Love the pink bar tape too!

  • Thanks both.
    Pink bartape is me paying homage to Winston 1, but whilst wrapping it yesterday I realised how much I prefer cotton tape, but for now it stays.
    Nitto S65 seat post has been ordered.

  • It slaps. Try not to sell this one :)
