Nice, I started the 1 armed build (bust collar bone) of my Roberts at the weekend. I'll get a thread up later on. Currently short of an ideal stem (using a black Ritchey one at the mo, and I am after a UK made silver stem of some sort...possibly using a quil adaptor) Think it could look very similar to yours at the end though! (sans disc wheel )

What length steerer are you after? I may have something.

Hows about a "custom" framed theme for a BOTM

Oh another thing, how in gods name does the Pace canti rocker thing work? Ive not cabled it yet but I just cant see it.

 

[jez-4-bikes-max]

I'll take a pic of the rocker thing when Ive set it up.

That is going to be tasty. Crack on Jezza!

Theres a pic of the cable routing in my joes brakes thread if this sheds any light on it -

To get the brakes to pull evenly was a bit of a pain but fiddling with cable lengths sorted it eventually - I think in that pic I still need to shorten the left hand side.

 

[JeRkY]

Smashing cheers!

Pretty much how I thought but I couldnt imagine the pull being equal on both sides.

 

[stevet1]

No problem.

Forgot to say - this is going to look great Jez and will be a good rider too I imagine.

looks great jezza. Not 100% sure on the disco mind.

How does it compare sizewise with your old one? Or is it your old one?
