Another top job martin, keep up the fantastic work.

Thanks

Thought I'd see how it looks with a Control Tech 120mm stem and Hyperlite bars.....

 

[RockiMtn]

like the updates!

 

[wadsy]

getting there

It's had a few changes recently .....

Litespeed Ti stem with ti bolts
Titec Ti handlebar
Syncros cranks with Syncros rings (42,32,20) and SRP alloy bolts
Middleburn titanium self-extracting crank bolts.
Dean Titanium seat-post
Mango CK headset

Also the fork travel has been dropped from 80mm to 60mm as the 120mm stem didn't work with the longer travel.

Just waiting for the Syncros ti BB and still looking for a 27.0 Syncros ti 'post :?

Another lovely bike wadsy, love the syncros cranks too....

 

[Rio]

this bike gets better and better! The Litespeed stem is great, and I like the grips too. Where did you get those?

 

[wadsy]

Thanks for the comments

The grips came on my '97 Explosif when I bought that, I haven't seen any others since :?

 

[wadsy]

Revised spec added

 

[wadsy]

Thought I'd give it a go as a 1x9 :?

Middleburn Uno crankset, Sram Attack 9spd shifter, King mango, Dean Ti 'post, Extralite wheelset with Conti Race Kings......

King gold, USE Alien carbon 'post, Tune wheelset with Schwalbe Rocket Rons.....

Purely from my own personal perspective I preferred it with the spec. in the pix with the Control Tech stem - that was nigh on perfect...

...I don't like this version at all... :cry:
