Build thread or else!!!
Thanks @markoc, I'm already the proud owner of a Clockwork Evo (2017) and Alpine 6 (2019 frame but self built) so I'm delighted to get my hands on a C16R (1997, I believe). I'm a weird shape and trying to get a drop bar bike to fit me is a nightmare. I need something low and long and what better than to get an old school MTB with a long TT and build my own?! Even better that it's an Orange 
I hear you @Bike Hoarder. Been taking pictures as I go. It's already stripped and getting cleaned and blasted next week

You have a Big Ape Index (long arms)?
I'm the opposite 5ft10 tall with t-rex wingspan (5ft8.5).
Ha, almost @otherself certainly ape like but short legged and long torso!
