Hi all,
This is my very first post on RB and I’m quite excited to share a very special bike, one which I’ve always wanted to own and build. I know it’s not completely finished but when the chain arrives I’ll complete it.
It’s been a pleasure to work on it and I think my off the wall mature comes through with the parts I’ve chosen. Definitely a marmite build but I like it!
I’d be really interested to hear what comes to people’s minds when they view these shots and if there is any appeal to buy it I’d be pleased to let it go to a new home owing to 3 or more titanium bikes which I am more enamoured with.
Here’s the build details (approx 9.5kg):
Shimano XTR 952 9 speed front and rear mech
Sunrace 9 speed top mounts
KCNC 9 speed cassette (superlight)
Middleburn 175mm cranks - some wear to the arms as per photos
Carbon and titanium BB in unused condition. It’s only just been installed - super light.
Shimano XT v brake and Real Design Brake levers
Syncros Stem 100mm 25.4mm clamp size 28.6mm steerer
X-Lite titanium bar
Immaculate Rock Shox World Cup Sid forks. These have the carbon crown and steerer and weigh in at 1298g
USE seatpost with new decal
Selle Italia reissue titanium rail saddle
KCNC seat clamp
Chris King gun smoke headset in excellent condition
Wheels are brilliant condition Hope TiGlide and Mavic SUP rims
Michelin Wildgripper tyres in great shape - pretty much NOS
