Orange P7 - 2002

[rwm1962]

Bought this as a spare frame to put aside if my 2001 ever gets too far gone but can't resist building it up. Going to take advantage of the disc option. I love the decals on this. Going to winterfy the 2001 & run that in the grotty weather.

Like the decals also. Super versatile frame and perfect for a winter bike.

It's complete & rides like a dream. I kept the Renthal RC30 bars for another build. This is going to be the bikepacking bike & occasional snow & ice commuter as I have a spare disc wheelset with studded tyres.

Thanks. I was wondering if the bars might raise a few eyebrows! They are comfortable & hopefully good for lashing a drybag too.
