Got home tonight to be greeted by a box with the rest of my parts in it, with the wife away on Brownie camp with our daughter I know what I'll be doing tomorrow
Before
After
The work of an Alchemist~ check out the finish on the Anno
The donar bub before being re-incarnated

Nader":370cbpam said:That's great project. Damn nice parts and fantastic work from Chris
I'm curious how it goes on
I’ve used Chris a number of times and always impressed with what I get back…
I send him rough diamonds and he send me back polished ones, fully restored or modified to their former glory

Lovely work so far Spud - glad I could inspire with my little build
Cheers buddy, I followed your build closely and you made me feel guilty for the years of neglect I’d given mine.
I’ll get some picture up shortly…

Re: Re:
Judge for yourself... its certainly got something about it
so far, its everything I'd hoped for
still need to sort out a 122mm bottom bracket as the s/h stand in Shimano one really does look pants
in comparison to the Royce one that came out.
I had the inner ring anodised in an attempt to extenuated the impact of the anodised spider (if that makes sense :? )
The Stem and Fork Crown finished in Pewter really goes with the M900 which I guess is why Chris (Rampage) bought it in in the first place
For Anno bling I think this is probably the most subtle colour I've seen, I'll let the pictures do the talking !
(should have used a camera rather than a phone but hey, I've not finished yet)#

Re:
I'll come clean about the rear wheel....
Having never seen period Ringle hubs in this colour I bought a NOS pair (rather cheaply) off ebay.com however !!! the seller didn't state and I didn't think to ask....
but the rear one was for a bloody Road bike :shock:
never dawned upon me until after building it I went to mount it and found it was approx 10mm too narrow.. :evil:
I guess you live and learn, thank god there's guys on here who can sort problems
here's the offending article and the build saving collaboration between Elite504 and Rampage...
guys I owe you both big time for saving my ass on this one
(rear wheel just needs running up my LBS for tensioning/truing up)

That's really taking shape now mate
Are you going to re-decal the ringle parts? will be a little awkward doing the hubs now they have been built? EDIT: just looked again, you have done
I really like the work Chris is doing, I keep meaning to get some bits off to him, but keep changing my mind on what I want :facepalm:
