  • Does it feel well made? I'm looking at getting one too and that would match the rest of my Srammed up bike. And is pretty much the cheapest.

  • i would get one but it wont fit my garmin

  • I've bought a Sram one off Wiggle on Thurs and they haven't even processed my order yet.

    Looks ok, uses a Torx instead of a hex-head bolt which was a surprise.

    I don't have any concerns about it failing, based on my inspection of it.

    I think they're out of stock at the minute, have been for weeks

  • Frame has been unpacked properly now, and its now fitted with the correct Reynolds decals (bar one fork decal, which reynolds forgot to send). The colour is much deeper and richer than I expected, I will take some photos tomorrow if i get a chance at lunch. There is a problem though, the brand new headset and seatpost clamp that came with it are black...I thought I could live with it but I just can't. Silver ones will be sourced!

  • Chris King!

    I might sell you one for less...

  • I'm about to go Chris Bling on mine...

    how much....

  • ^ thers a silver DA headset on sale here http://www.lfgss.com/thread102998.html

  • Thats 1" and threaded, this frame is 1 1/8th

  • £50? kept meaning to put it on my CdF and the new frame is integrated...

  • I might be able to get a hope one for a bit cheaper, but if that falls through i will take you up on it

  • Hope? over CK?

  • Yeah, they're UK made and I like their stuff. I dont really see how CK is that much better to justify the price.

  • Except for their quick release seat clamps. They suck balls.

  • quick releases will be going no where near this bike

  • Just had a look at the OP again with all the parts planned for the build...

  • Hubs have been ordered, hopefully they'll manage to by-pass customs

  • aaaand now I have a 100mm x2 on its way

  • Blouse, you should have purchased my 120mm X4.

  • I would have if it were silver

  • I have no answer for that.

  • This was also cheap than yours.
