  • Possibly getting ahead of myself a little here, but I thought I'd put this thread together in order to spur myself on and get this completed.

    At the moment I'm in "part hoarding" ahead of putting the frame together (more on that later).

    Got:

    • ENVE 29er CX clinchers, Powertap G3 disc rear, DT Swiss 180 front
    • Tyres I've just forgotten the names of
    • Bolt-thru adapter for the front w. Maxle lite
    • Hope skewer for the rear
    • Giant TCX bolt-thru fork
    • Syntace F119 stem
    • Shimano R685 shifters+calipers
    • Hope floating 160mm rotor for the front w. DT Swiss centre-lock to ISO converter
    • 3T Ergonova Pro bars
    • Arione R1 saddle
    • Time XC-8 pedals

    I need:

    • Ultegra 6800 mechs
    • Ultegra 6800 CX chainset
    • Ultegra 6800 11-28 cassette
    • Headset

    Now, what have I forgotten?

  • Now, what have I forgotten?

    A reasonable budget?

  • Seatpost/seat post clamp?

  • Dammit's parts bin is to die for

  • WTB Nano 40c!

  • Cyclocross bike

    clinchers

  • Tubeless. I still wake up, late at night, harrowing visions of our Winchester-Eastbourne ride in my minds-eye, peeling the foil off my last patch.

  • Seatpost/seat post clamp?

    I have a cunning plan in that department

  • keep wondering if nanos would fit on mine in the rear

  • Rogan you'd be welcome to pop over and find out if you would like.

  • I may do that if I can find the time inside opening hours!

  • Pars are at my house in Forest Hill, pop over in the evening.

  • ill get to you on that!

  • (also this bikes going to be ridic. dem wheels)

  • They're second hand, hopefully some new stickers will have them looking new:

  • I'll use the wheels until you get the frame sorted m'k?

  • They are currently in Brizzle, if you fancy going and getting them you'd be welcome to use them.

  • Not heard great things about running tubeless for cross.

  • you have to check which tire/rim-combo really works tubeless and also should follow the pressure advices than this can be great.

  • My plan was to give the wheels and tyres to Howard and say "please to make fix"

  • Can pick up and bring with me on sunday if you want...?

  • That would be awesome, if ok with you then yes please.

  • email me.

  • Happy to mount em up for you.
