Well, in our brain plans works like in A-Team serie, perfect. I want to change the frame of my Sworks 2012 to a aluminium nice one because I´m tired of carbon fibre.

The start. This is my daily bicycle. It was 26 but has lot of space so now it is a 27.5:

It was supposed to be easy. I get in love with this chick:

The frame has some easter eggs. It has a binary message, very nice for hot summer apaint job etc. It is 29 but it will be 27.5 becuase I don´t like big wheels and it is the opposite of the Sworks, the 29 wheels are a bit tight. I read about it, I found a shop with a new one and with a small discount. And when I saw it , it was amazing 😍

The problem was that During this time I was thinking that the Fox 32 doesn´t match as well as the blue SID Ultimate SL. And internet is the window of doom. So I made some searchs, it is a expensive fork until ... OMG, it is new and cost less than half price because it hasen´t got the internal spider? I have plenty and comes with the original box, not refurbised ...

Annother top built with XTR or XX1, I will need some nice wheels (I was thinking in white industries hubs + duke lucky star light weight rims etc etc) And the Sworks will continue to be my daily bicycle.

I will continue with stem, handle bar etc I have seen many chisel Special edition but never one with top components. Target 10 kg. The frame is 1.2kg and the fork near 1.4kg. I will built with durable components, no extremely light like Darimo, schmolke etc

It comes with the head set, nice touch and a seat post that weight a bit too much. I was trying to find one around 170gr and it is not easy. In the 00s was easy to find a seat post under 200gr and durable, now ... not many options, they all weight a ton.

¿ What are your plans for the S works once the build is finished? I just had to ask. :)
If I´m honest I don´t know because I will not change the frame of the Sworks for the chisel. So I will end with two bicycles plus the others :D The S works rides fast and I like for that reason. I have to think how to reduce one at least.

But for now, I only have a project and some parts comming like a new handle bar: A race Face Next SL :)

And in the Sworks I have change the grips and now looks quite nice 🥰
