D-ti it supposed to be a Expedition/World/Tourer kinda thing with 26" wheels and most real world tourers still use cants including my Ti Dawes but its got 700c wheels.
 
Nice Surly's :cool:

As for me and 29er'ing well I'm working on it but purpose built it wont be. I like to bodge a solution so I'm keeping my eyes peeled for hybrid frames with enough tyre clearance :LOL:
 
SURLY

Hi Guys
My Surly LHT when it was fresh out its box this afternoon. It stays there until I have everything in place ready to build it up. Slow build as funds permit :roll:
Nearly there though, just a few little things to finish.
Mine runs 26'' wheels

Build

I have a few parts with a few still to get.
Have:
Stronglight triple chainset
XT 7700 rear mech - new
Sora triple front mech
Dura Ace 9 speed down tube shifters
Avid shorty 4 canti's - new
UN55 BB new
kalloy seatpost
Wheels - XT 9 speed hubs on Alex Adventure rims, continental tyres

Still to get cassette, Velo Orange headset and velo Orange bars, Dia Compe brake levers, Brooks B17 then usual cables chain etc
Have a alu rack for it but may have a Surly nice rear rack on its way next week. Then probably some cheap lowrider on the front until I can get a tubus, surly or the like later.
This one will be a keeper and while I dont have much funds for it and they keep getting diverted to other projects ;) it will get done, slowly. Though I want it nice from the off rather than just chuck stuff on it randomly. I'd rather wait and have it right, even though I miss my tourer.
So a build off might be a slow thread because mine will have everything go on at once, probably the night the last piece of the puzzle arrives :LOL:
