I sincerely hope it's nobody on RB who owns this - it's the devil's work - canti rear stop with V-brakes! And, a stem clumpier than that Russian woman's shoes in that Bond movie when she clicks her heels and the spike comes out the front. (I guess I don't like a Thompson). (Do not, do not mention the bar-ends either).
Nice hubs mind.

I know what you mean - there’s been some interesting decisions made there… not necessarily good decisions. But, decisions nonetheless.

I’d still give it shed space though (actually, if my wife found out I’d bought it, I’d be the one living in the shed, there’d be no space for the bike!)

Nothing that can’t be fixed.

Yes, to be fair it can. I'd want it ready to rock and roll and look sweet-as for that amount of wedge!

To be honest, it looks like a billy bargain given the spec. That Thomson stuff looks brand new, and isn't cheap.

I'd expect a merlin frame to £1000 by itself, let alone the xtr, Royce and what looks like a cooks chain set.

Thats the best bit! Sell all the new stuff replace with retro and you've done a BOTM build! 5 minute job

It’s a bit of a strange spec but all easily sorted.

M900 and M950’mix , single ring , modern bits.
