weight: ~1780g

Smart looking wheels! The straight/evenly tensioned?

as straight and evenly tensioned i could make it

Taking them to LBS for finishing?

probably, we'll see

You got a tension meter fro the front? Low spoke count radial, want to make sure it's right other wise you're risking hub failure....

no i dont

Nice wheels. Not sure if I'm brave enough to build my own but I'm curious, how long did they take to complete? Was it any cheaper to build yourself?

Would give them away to Cyclecorner and Mattias for proper tension.

took about 1h-1,5h, was cheaper to build myself yes

the front wheel is now checked and ready to go, all that is missing now is a stem

no toeoverlap , win! (i hope, haven't mounted a tyre yet)

Looks good, makes me wanna out mine together

random stem and handlebar

bad ps'ing

a little bit of toe overlap

is the saddle hight dialed in already ?

pretty much yes, i got short legs

The frame is too big for you...again.

no its not too big, its too big for you to like it

Toe overlap isn't a problem unless you're turning on the spot. At speed, if you're steering that much, overlap isn't what you'd be worried about. Looks good

i second thrust´s concern.

functionally it's not too big, but for the looks it might seem to big for the lfgss standards

functionally the forward sloping top tube is useless, second eliminated with a riser bar.

functionally you can ride it, just the pursuit charcter is just for the looks. still a neat looking bike and with those rims also a good ride. enjoy it

60mm stem matches my 60mm seatpost, I like it compact

to do: Slam stem, shorten handlebars, mount grips, learn to skid.

So that's pretty much it, my first bike ever made from scratch, i have learnt a lot and it was fun!

You've really fucked it in the final stage.
