This is my latest build... Sabbath Silk Road frame from the fleabay for a bargainous 350 beans (had a bit of a crywank when it arrived as i thought it was too small-turns out it is slightly snug but otherwise fits) and built up with Veloce 10spd from my now deceased crabon Wilier (Rip, friend), brushed steel Chorus seatpost (would love to upgrade this for Ti just for the sake of it...), Easton EA 70 forks that came with the bike-nothing fancy but I like them. Pictured with Pro-Lite Bracciano wheels but I've had some Ambrosio Ultralite's laced to NOS White Industries Aft Tracker hubs built specially for this bike, though I didn't want to bring them with me to Holland as i was carrying a lot of baggage (I actually put a rack on this bad boy. perverted.) and they are only 28h rims...
Only changes I might make soon are putting a Centaur crabon crank on as the Veloce is compact, but otherwise i really enjoy riding it as is so will be looking forward to taking it up some mountains over summer I think.
The Sabbath frame is a bit marmite visually because of the stays, but I like it and since the first time I've ridden on it I don't see myself ever going back to carbon... Ti just feels sooo nice-light, responsive and comfy. Might remove the shitty sabbath decal though, it's not great and I like plain old Ti tubes ;)
