Carlton Criterium... Ratlook on trend 'gravel bike'.

Black.

Love what you're doing with this, my current frame search may have to head in a similar direction.

Overly sick project

Ordered a black cambium c15 today. Should fit the build nicely.

Rack coming together

Rides very nicely. Few finish touches to go.

This is awesome. Glad you swapped the black stem but it's just a little shiny atm. Needs some patina then it will fit with the rest. Not to take away from it though... thanks for sharing.

All kinds of excellent! I've never liked quill to ahead conversions but apart from that it looks great. Spinny?

Late to the party, but you should check this Finnish guys Raleigh out http://www.fixedgeargallery.com/2008/june/4/AnttiPeltonen.htm

< shameless plug > Coincidentally currently have a bike with the same frame as that link for sellz in classifieds. < /shameless plug >

All finished (apart from fitting the cambium)

Took her on a two day 100mile trip Talybont resevoir yha yesterday/today. Ride was smooth and surprisingly capable off road.

well done, looks great

Nice, that looks like another roubaix 1-2-3 stitch up for mapei!

Great bike and pictures. Is that talybont north of Barmouth?

It took me way too long to discover it was only you in this picture when I first looked at it this morning.

How did you make the struts for the rack?

Cheers. it is indeed. I stayed at the yha there. it was bliss!

Really easy. Bought some cheap tubular steel on ebay 10mm diameter 1mm wall thickness.

Essentially then just crush each end the bench vice and drill a hole in it (then grind down the ends to tidy up).

It is indeed. Cracking riding round there!
