Current Projects chat and miscellany

Project Black Metal Vigo is coming along. Got the chainring bolts today so I could actually attach the chainring and got the chain a couple of days ago.
I'm not happy with the chain because I didn't realise the galvanized coating would make it look like it's painted silver. I'm going to buy a silver KMC Devil when they come back in stock. Also the cranks required a bit of filing on the top edges of the spider arms and the inside of the crank arm to fit the chainring over the top and I don't particularly like it, so I want to swap it for some Sram Red ones as they should fit without issue, but can't find any second hand in 165.
The bartape is getting replaced as soon as the new stuff turns up in the post and there's a Tester Topcap™ to come as well so I'll chop the steerer when that turns up.
Otherwise, it's in full working condition and is surprisingly light, 7.6kg according to my bathroom scales.
Also the spray job is proper shoddy and is scratching off at the slightest touch despite the coats of lacquer.

Needs a red seatpost.
