@hippy thanks for the offer (I’m over in Berlin unfortunately) and advice
@snottyotter and @oheyitsd I think the deore 10 speed option is gonna be the way forward, I can use the current cassette and zee derailleur with the deore shifter on another frame to save a bit of money.
I put the bike together trying to spend as little money as possible (taking parts of other bikes etc) but the first few rides made me smile so much that i figured I should invest some cash into it. I’ll most probably put it in the current projects thread as there’s a few problems I’m having trouble getting my head round. Chainline and tire choice (put on bigger tires yesterday but feel no where near as supple as the old ones, hopefully playing with tire pressure will help) are the next as it’s loosing grip and dropping the chain on wet roots etc
