So around xmas I bought a beautiful Casati framset made from Columbus Neuron, from Fisk, of this forum. It is lovely and obviously deserves a really nice italian groupset and good components, but I just wanted to get it on the road as quick as possible, so its pretty utilitarian right now, but I think it looks nice. Most importantly it rides like a dream.
My original budget including frame was about £500, total build came in just under that at about £480
Spec as follows:
2013 Sora Groupset
except the brake calipers which are campy centaur
shimano 501 wheelset
bontrager ssr compact bars
Cinelli Pinochio stem
Alpina seatpost off an old bike
Madison prime saddle
Michelin pro race 4 tyres
