I won’t waffle on, loved Chainspotting, loved Dirty tricks and cunning stunts and always hankered after a red F series. Bought a cheap F900, was painting it red anyway. Saw @Luke26mhz Sig build and fell head over heels again!
Here’s our donor:

I’ve gone and scoured the internet and found a few bits.
Got a set of Middleburns to use until a set of Magics land in my lap, just waiting on finding a red bashguard and I’ll clean them up.
Got a couple of pairs of Azonic bars in gold but they want refinishing really- any suggestions?
It seems Kore Elite stems don’t exist anymore in 1.56” but I’ll keep hunting
Got a pair of VGC Sun Mammoth rims, I know he used Rhynos mostly but I did see these in a bike of his once!
Got a nice pair of Hope Ti Glide disc hubs to use unless a red non disc Ti Glide shows up
Sachs shifters en route from various places to make up a NOS set, just need the Quarz mech
Anyway…..
 
Awesome project, looking forward to the updates. That stripper did the business, the off the shelf stuff is crap these days.
 
I dont think i'm strictly allowed to buy the stuff but I know the guy who owns CCR Custom paints. Its bloodt strong, i wore 3 or 4 nitrile gloves and they still melted and made my fingers start tingling!

A couple more bits of the jigsaw landed today, skewers an eBay spesh, a little scuffed but I can live with that
436 spokes I’ll never use, so if you need any PM me and you can have a wheels worth or whatever
Some nice Sachs waveys from our very own @Mod-Master that will be getting used along with a.NOS shifter that’s currently floating about between here and France!
Still haven’t pained the maguras up as my L5S1 disc has decided it wants to make itself noticed and splurged itself and I can’t move properly.

More news as it happens! Stay tuned!
 
Well I haven't updated this in a while!
Bars and bash ring sourced via eBlag as CODA Magic cranks are just more money than I can justify
Sachs Quarz mech sourced through here, I now have all the correct Magura boosters,
The rarest thing of all arrived today found for me by @Luke26mhz and i'm forever grateful! :cool:
A NOS IRC ElGato arrived from Romania a few weeks back, still need one of these and i can start putting things together!

I dont know how many of these were ever made, I suspect it was only in the 100's maybe less seeing as its a proprietary fitment, (Cannondale seem to be very good at that) I am absolutely over the f@#$ing moon with this.
Few little decals for find and other odds and sods and we'll be golden

Nothing to report as of yet, Been let down by multiple people to refinish the frame, still need to build the wheels and find a couple of little bits.
