And whilst I'm here :"as you may know that brands like Reynolds 531, Mavic, Campagnolo and Tokyo Fixed are all at the top of their competition."
NO ! You BOUGHT the bits from Tokyo Fixed ! They do not make Kalloy,DMR, Andel etc and whereas they are lovely fellas the bargain basement parts * you've bodged on to that frame are not improved by you paying a bit more for them.
*I have a Kalloy seat post. I mean it's just a seatpost and it's cheap and if I ever need a lead pipe in a real life game of Cluedo a couple of twists and I'm all tooled up. But you CANNOT get your money back on it. Not even liderally.
