Done. ( Don't know how to load images on to LFGSS )

Who do you have that front wheel support?
To get the bars higher of the saddle more backwards?

;-)

What happened to the uber-light american classic/ IRD/ CX-ray plan?

Carbon. Carbon happened :-)

Is that yours sumo? Look's are always ftw. Those front wheel supports are handy save you perpetually pedaling downhill

no it's Darwin's. I just put it in the thread for him.

Photo taken 10 mins after build - This I fear could have been a mistake - Riding posistion changes ( Bars, saddle , stem ) Have now happend ; )

What group have you gone for 6pt ?

I Those front wheel supports are handy save you perpetually pedaling downhill

what's wrong with using the yellow pages like everyone else?

Just sorted the wheels out. I think. Arranging collection...
SRAM Red, Zipp 808s. Some Keo Blade pedals in the post, just need to sort some handlebars out and stick everything together. This thing is a money pit, but I wanted to do it properly.

Ram SHRED,

"When you think DA looks ugly and you don't want campag"?

here's a shitty photoshop :P

(loadsa spokes cos I was sticking my h+sons in there just to see...)

i really want a classic steel racing bike with riser bars and full gears/brakes.

there i said it.

jersey, been there done that (70's racer with flat bar), fun and easy to ride in cities.

would this be to your liking?

id ride that for sure, but I'm thinking much closer to the sacrilegious concept of this with Nitto risers (click for larger photo):

My little christmas project. This is my Massi mountain bike that I keep at my parents in France (I'd like to bring it here actually)... I had these Massi grips matching the bike in my drawer in London for years and I would always forget to take them with me when I was going there... Now they are finally fitted!

My 585 Ultra was <£1200 for f&f, so I saved a grand I could put towards building it up. I then saved about £200 on the chainset by buying Record 10v after the 11v came out, and so on. If you take all the savings I made by shopping in the sales, getting last year's model etc. and then subtract that from what I actually paid, I reckon I got the whole bike practically for free. I'm pretty sure that's how economics works :-)
