@ james, want to see the bike, I will be passing judgement and hefting both bikes to see which is lighter, but never hating... ;-P

Ta. First build so obviously overly pleased so far. =)

Paint job was just done at a car shop, Autovation in Manchester, couldn't afford Atlantic Boulevard's prices.

The decals look great.

Tempted as I am by that Suntour groupset, the $700 reserve puts me off. It'll stay Italian - Campagnolo Record chainset and hubs, bars, rims and stem to be confirmed.

Nay, fuck that.
Deep V, Risers and Pink Oury FTW!

Which Fizik? I've got the 'lo squalo' one.

lo squalo?

The new one is the Antaraes

JerryXT - are you the guy who has got one, too? Or did I buy it off you in a parallel universe?

just had it 'found' in the warehouse. Relieved. I even found the seatpin in my cellar last night :D Need new paint next. Where did you get yours done?

Andy do it like this

I don't do shimano

Also want white rimmed Dura-ace wheels, seen at the bike show, but they're 2009 and aren't even on Shimano web site yet.

*yes....good....

give in to your emotions...*

A tremor in the Force. The last time I felt it was in the presence of my old master.

Andy do it like this

That's very, very nice.

Waiting for my new wheels, but the rest is starting to come together with this old Raleigh Pursuit...Need to change a few bits over time (when i have the money), but will be on the road soon.

picked this up of gumtree last night… Want to keep it as authentic as possible so would look at just changing the hub and chain-set then giving it a good'ol clean-up.

Im on a budget tho, and have never done this before so any help would be greatly appreciated.

That bike is finished!

what do you need to know? Put new bar tape on and go ride.

...strip the fuck out of it!
