Im 5'11" (33,5" inside leg) and 54 fits me great, very comfy.

thanks guys, then i'll go for something else!

Apparently they fit 28C so if you find a particularly skinny cross tyre maybe

think this might work? Schwalbe CX Pro tyre 30c

anyone ever fitted a cyclocross knobbie tire in an alpina track fork? mission impossible?

gold plate the spokes ;)

the frame is too big, its for sale, I bought a planet x track frame instead, good price atm 199£

... Just put the saddle up a bit... Get a 90mm stem and you'll grown in too it!

I really liked this at the start but the stem ruins it for me! *Rep for graphics though...

got a 100mm stem on the way also searching for drop bars

You've really fucked it in the final stage.

bring the hate

60mm stem matches my 60mm seatpost, I like it compact

to do: Slam stem, shorten handlebars, mount grips, learn to skid.

So that's pretty much it, my first bike ever made from scratch, i have learnt a lot and it was fun!

functionally it's not too big, but for the looks it might seem to big for the lfgss standards

The frame is too big for you...again.

no its not too big, its too big for you to like it

is the saddle hight dialed in already ?

pretty much yes, i got short legs

random stem and handlebar

bad ps'ing

a little bit of toe overlap

no toeoverlap , win! (i hope, haven't mounted a tyre yet)

the front wheel is now checked and ready to go, all that is missing now is a stem

Nice wheels. Not sure if I'm brave enough to build my own but I'm curious, how long did they take to complete? Was it any cheaper to build yourself?

took about 1h-1,5h, was cheaper to build myself yes

You got a tension meter fro the front? Low spoke count radial, want to make sure it's right other wise you're risking hub failure....

no i dont

Taking them to LBS for finishing?

probably, we'll see

Smart looking wheels! The straight/evenly tensioned?

as straight and evenly tensioned i could make it

2/2

weight: ~1780g

1 of 2 done, first time ever building a wheel.

good enough

dip a rag/cloth in gasoline and wipe

Check if you can peel of the logos on those rims.

They are water transferred and won’t fall off for a long long time.
Best,

From h plus son themselves

So a razorblade to get that off and then a hairdryer to make them lift off the rim.

Thinking about getting these for the Conc instead of the SL42s.

might work!

Off even.

no you cant peel the logos off, seems like they have some kind of clear coat on top
