Serotta CSI

quidco it for extra 3%

Full groupset? or rotor + 6800?

Just out of interest, what is the purpose of this bike?

Sunday best - Cannondale
All weather bike - Pengy
Crosseur - Badman
Is there another bike with discs also?
tarck - Ridley...

Serotta - ???

Wrong forum

Ridley might be for sale soon.

Crosser- undecided, I ride it so seldom. It is huge fun though.

Giving up on tarck or got your eye on something else?

I've not really thought it through- however my hall is full of bikes.

I reckon you'd miss the Ridley, although you do seem cursed, that whatever you build turns out too nice... Can't believe that started out as the "beater" langster.

Hah, true. I just enjoy making stuff, including bikes.

What would be a fair price for the Ridley?

... what about the kitchen?

Complete or F&F?

Complete

Much.

Surely would be better off splitting? although more hassle, finding someone with that much cash and of manly proportions, who likes red, and plastic tubs... could be a challenge.

Just out of interest, what is the purpose of this bike?

Serotta - New age fun with a vintage feel

I get why you've done it, but its a shame you had to go with 6800.

Please for the love of god don't put the 6800 cranks on it.

6800 cranks are an improvement over the rest of the shimano line

Still Shitmano though.

This going to look great! How much was customs?

Sweet. I still like the idea of trying to make one from scratch though - will save that for when someone is completely screwed.

Pro-tip: don't leave a steel bike in a damp cellar for a year.

oof. damaged or just surface?

Just surface - steerer is 853, blades are carbon, dropouts are titanium, so a fairly complicated fork in terms of materials, but Matt says it'll scrub up ok.

stop taking up matts time god dammit! i want my bike!

With all this work are you not tempted to have the steerer lengthened and turn it into a 1" threadless?

I missed the bit about new fork, why's that?

Old fork is staying, 1" threaded in order to use the titanium Serotta stem.
