I guess it’s time to show what I’ve done with it. This is how it’s built up now and it’s perfect. It’s more or less catalogue aside from the seat post. I guess one thing that I wish was that the Prestige bars had a little bit more sweep and length. They’ve got the Control Tech extenders though, so I guess at least one of my wishes came true.
This is the third iteration. There’s been a silver chain ring variation, a newer Brodie ICR variation and lastly an early build had some Syncros bar ends that in retrospect, really did look bad. Haha. Anyways, here it is (build specs below).
