    And one more...

    Finally completed my Lynskey with the addition of an Enve Composites stem to match the fork.

    Very pleased with it, although given it cost more than my road bikes, it's partly a relief that I like it so much...

    That is gorgeous... just swap the wheels for some carbon clinchers... ;)

    Hmm, tempting but I think that my push my wife over the edge. As I mentioned a while back, this started out as a cheap commuter project to replace my stolen Pearson Touche...

    Wow, lovely, have been toying with a Ti frame myself. Can I ask how much were the customisations ie drilled brake bridge to actually take a brake and the cable guides on the top tube? In addition I find I take a 53 TT but the seat tube for this size is 46! Really small! How's the sizing on the frame?

    I cracked and bought the Lynskey seatpost. It looks pretty nice on the bike. I just need to fit my Enve Composites stem, which came today, and everything is done. Have to say, this bike is a joy to ride. It seems to soak up every little bump and is nice and quick too.

    Thanks--just ordered a Ritchey torque key.

    Thanks. It was about 40 quid. Starting to wish I'd paid more for a better one.

    This may be a dumb question, but I can't work out how to use my new torque wrench. The instructions are very brief and I can't work out where the lockring is. Anyone explain how I make it work?

    As the pic shows, you twist the handle to the required torque, but then what?

    Picked up the Lynskey. Seems very nice to ride and looks great for real. Weight is 7.3kg, even with a fairly heavy alu 3T seatpost and seat with non-carbon rails...

    How much do you weigh? If you're over 20kg, you probably shouldn't go near the Alien. Worst.Clamp.Ever.

    I weigh more than 20kg. Indeed, I'm about 78kg so thanks for that tip too.
