for reluctant sale due to my arse not being the right shape!
it was a brand new saddle chopped and tied by Skully - used for about 500 miles, will include proofhide/spanner/cloth. Unfortunately it does have my initials stamped in the nose (mp)
would like £40+postage (saddle was £60 +£20 chopping cost)

sam,
thanks for the info - just ordered a set of the FSA bars off CRC - good deal at the moment!
going to have a set of road wheels (orderd a fixed/disc phil wood hub set of Will)and a set of off-road wheels (Surly Hubs (fixed disc) with Mavic 719 rims - being built)
they are the older WI cranks with bolt on chainrings (i think these were produced for white industires by Sugino?) Think i will go for 115mm BB - just need to decide on which type...... running out of money now!
If you're just using it for commuting then any standard road rim is probably the best idea. Lighter than touring/29er rims and strong enough for purpose.
If you're commuting I think you'd find midges or similar far too wide (unless you have the joy of a predominantly off-road commute) I really like the new FSA k-wing bars I've got on my new cross bike, they also do a cheaper alloy version but I couldn't find them anywhere so got sucked into the carbon ones as they were on special at CRC. They are a decent width but if they did a 48 or a 50 I'd be much happier off road. For road use they are perfect (in fact I ordered another set for my road bike...).
I would definitely recommend going for road pull cable discs rather than mtn pull drop levers. The feel is much nicer plus you can use a much wider range of levers and (god forbid) STI's if you ever fancy putting gears on there. The Nitto randonneur bars are also really nice for commuting/touring (they're what I have on my touring build Peregrine) but also a little hard to get hold of. Try Will at HubJub. In a 48 though I find them more than wide enough for road use and they have a really nice shape to them.
Are your cranks WI enos? They should be fine, you'll need at least a 113mm bb spindle.
If you need any more info feel free to mail me.
Sam
