Frame is finished - just waiting for decals

I can't wait to get this bike now.

Do love that fork.

Christmas comes early, as my frame and fork should arrive today.

pics

That fork sure is nice.

Rubbish phone pic; the green pops a bit more in daylight. The build should be done by Friday, so proper pics to follow.

Dat green

Very nice; what is it getting built up with? Sram?

Ultegra 6800; Thomson finishing kit; tb14 laced to Hope Pro 3.

Well jell.

Its pretty! Geekhouse ride in February/March?
(I need to reconfigure my set up/ re-build some wheels)

And rad neon TRP cantis

That looks like its going to be a great bike! Great color as well.
Must admit i really like how you correctly dismissed the discmounts :)

I have an issue with the seat post clamp. I checked with Marty, and he replied 'collar size is 28.6, but you might have to squeeze it on because of the powder'. Nik at LMNH measured it at 29.2. Could powder account for 0.3m of tube width? @eyebrows - is your collar a tight fit? I guess I will have to scuff / mark the paint a bit.

Also, anyone know where I could pick up a Thomson collar in London?

I ran into similar issue twice with 4130 frames first time round I used this and second time I was lucky enough to find a collar in some obscure parts bin drawer of LBS; cool story etc.

Had similar problem when I had a frame powdercoated, just took the bolt out, inserted flat blade screwdriver, twist, and on it went.
Lovely frame n forks by the way. Can't wait to see it built up.

That is fucking class. Great colour choice. Teamed with the Mudville type, it reminds me of the monster truck, Grave Digger. For that reason, may I suggest red bartape?

Condor have stock

Salsa Lip Lock > Thomson collar

Very, very, very tight.

Is it built yet?
