  • Famous last words but this one will stay with me forever I reckon!

  • I hope so! Dare I say it looks perfect.

  • Oof that looks nice

  • Thanks all. It's a great replacement for the 'Dale.

    Full build shots coming when customs have decided how much they're going to sting me for.

  • Late to the party but:

    Gumwalls plz.
    Nobody uses all black tyres anymore. Ever.(apart from people like @TM)

  • Going for some 700x26c GravelKings to start off with.

    As mentioned by some above, I really am not sure if I should be distracting from the paint work but, we will see how it looks!

    I'm sure I'll try them at some point.

  • You saw it here first.

  • Maybe go for the brown gravel king.

  • Touchdown.

  • ohw lawd

  • Should be built up at some point next week, shakedown ride planned for next weekend.

  • pink dropouts look great

  • Just a heads up, with 25mm Vittorias on Enve 3.4 you don't have a ton of clearance in the Enve disc forks so depending on the rims 26s might be tight.

  • Thanks for the heads up.

    The rims are Light Bicycle 35mm deep x 25mm wide rims and the Enve disc fork says clearance for 28s but I shall see.

    If there is even a sniff of it being too close, I'll buy a couple of new tires so as not to risk the paint.

  • Etched rear bridge detail.

  • That attention to detail is spot on. Lovely lovely bike.

  • Thank you. I'm very happy with it and attention to detail was super important in making a choice of framebuilder.

    They did an etched bridge on a track bike for Enve quite early with their relationship with them. It looked so good that I couldn't pass the opportunity to use a similar concept.

  • Ohhh that's very nice. Good job!

  • A failure for Starbike to deliver a tiny, tiny part relating to the brakes has scuppered my plans to take this home today.

    However...should be able to pick this up tomorrow and have a shakedown ride at the weekend.

    In the meantime, I took a few shots during the build today.

  • She still wants dibs and will pay postage😍

  • Pre-Insta full build shots.

    There will be more, better shots before long but these were with my GRII for now.

    Rode 25km home and this thing is amazing.

  • Very nice. Could you have gone 28s with the gravel kings, or is 26 about the limit?
