  • So, I have taken the plunge and bought a Hija de la Coneja in small:

    Frame is coming in dark grey so I am thinking black, silver and gold components :D

    So this is the list of bought components:
    Shimano SLX Cranks - Black (with gold chainring bolts)
    Shimano XT freehub 36h front and rear (rim brake version) - Silver (w/ SS conversion kit)
    Salsa Gordo 26" 36h rims - Black
    Deore black V brake lever

    and this is the stuff left to get:
    Headset - I am thinking a gold chris king (if I can get one of ebay)
    Stem - Thompson 70mm black 0 rise (black spacers)
    Grips - ODI black
    Bars - Current silver risers
    Seatpost - Prob a black (or silver) Thompson elite in-line
    Saddle - Current brown Brooks (may change)
    Seat clamp - Gold
    FBO - Current Avid 7
    Brake cable - Gold Nokon (that might be pushing it)
    Chain - MOAR GOLD!!!!!
    Tyres - Conti sport contact...dont know what size yet

    All the gold stuff might sound revolting but there has to bit a bit of ostentatious bling, its a polo bike for goodness sake! :D

    Will keep you posted on progress...
