Hey Folks

i made some progress, and assembled some parts to check how everything will fit together.

first of all i ripped my P23 apart and my plan war to fit most of the ritchey parts on the american.

i decided to make a funktional buildup and not a bling bling one. And thats because i kind of like weird build ups more like perfect ones...i have a Brodie that looks like shi...and somehow its perfect this way.

The bar will not make it to the final, but i needed something to fit the rest to...so!

i had this post in stock and the saddle came from the P23... could work.

all set up with a Hügi wheelset i had in stock as well, 2,35 Zmax got together with this.

and the final picture will release a special i had in mind. i guess you can point out what i mean.

so that´s it for today. i´m now waiting for some mail and the customs, for the rear derailleur hanger.

I have one problem this stem is way to long for me, hmm.
all the best

Re:

I love Americans! And with that fork and stem it should steer like a razor! Great build already, well done!

Re:

here we go with another small but very important part.

A closer look at the right dropout made clear why the derailleur hanger was missing. it was crooked.
i took all my courage together and straighten it.
longs story short.
Rear derailleur mounted, ready for the next step.
later

Re:

it rides really well, even with the long stem.
