Best cyclocross bike under £1000 and other CX chat

I paid 300£ shipped for my "dirty disco" frameset from ICAN sports. With headset but without paintjob.

yes, this one is a bit more expensive, probably because it has internal cables on the down tube and is lighter.

Yeah its a bit more sleek. I think you can get them DI2 ready as well.

Tasty innit

Other side of the pond but £650(ish) for frameset including shipping and wound up forks (as in the pic) Great value, the only issue is customs ..

Ridley Crosswind, 1 season old, approx. 500km, full shimano 105.

What should I pay for that?

I have a full crabon Kinesis CSix2 that I'm tempted to sell, any interest for 'cross bikes?

^^

Mine went for £500 in the end: http://www.lfgss.com/thread82941.html

I should have bought that.

Nah - the rims were shagged and the brakes were terrible...quick though.

Anyone know a good source to get the little pulley wheels which sit behind the bottom of the seat tube that make a top-tube front derailleur cable work with a bottom pull derailleur.
Tried searching for front derailleur pulley but am mainly getting stuff from the States or band-on versions. I only need the wheel itself...

Build one? http://www.joshcohenwrites.com/2011/08/17/d-i-y-cyclocross-derailleur-pulley/

^ yeah - I did see that and have ordered something from Ebay that I hope does the job..
cheers for looking..

Is a crabon BB30 frame with Enve forks SRAM Force for £2.2k good value?

Wiggle have Van Dessell bikes in stock

Depends if you are happy with Force / FSA wheels and bits really.

I'd imagine the market for the Full Tilt would be better served by frame only. It's a serious race frame and to an extent components reflect that. Except possibly the wheels which seem heavy and with inappropriately narrow rims. Slap a pair of hope hoops on it through and it's a contender.

For comparison, the 'dale SuperX Disc is around £3800 and the CAADX disc Ultegra £1400.

£500 more get you a Di2 with hydro.

If you don't mind how ugly the Tektro levers are;

Yeah but then you get an ali frame, naffer finishing kit and a hollowtech ii crank in a PF30 frame. For an extra £500.

But but... hydro!

Huh, irrevelant to the above discussion, under £2,000 for a Di2 cross look cracking.

s'alright - frame is ali as is the fork I think, and has the incredibly heavy shimano cable pull disc brakes. And a 'cross chainset doesn't appear to be an option.

You'd be better off buying the CAADX disc, selling the 6700 on it and upgrading it to Di2. IMHO.

Does it really have the Tektro/TRP hydro levers though? My understanding is Tektro/TRP never progressed them beyond the prototype stage, due to incompatibility issues with Di2 and Ui2.

Can order one in to try out.

Has standard Di2 levers and BB7's on the Evans site

Why dont Tektro just remove the complex geary bits. I want hydro drop levers.
