And add the following ingredients.
Wheels..Silver Chris King on silver Mavic 717 (would have preferred black really)
Fork...yet to be decided. Have RC31 but would prefer something else and maybe some bounce

BB...Hope ceramic
Front and rear mech to be sourced...XTR M970
Shifters...XTR M970
Bars...Easton Monkeylites
Stem...Syntace F99
Brakes...Hope Pro
Headset...Black CK or Ti CK, haven't decided which to put on
Pedals...XTR

Nice looking frame, Carl, and I suppose Cindy Crawford had one, so why not a Merlin...?

I can thoroughly recommend the renthal rings.

I have been running one in a 1x9 set up sans guide and never dropped a chain.

Saying that it is quite flat around here

Could you do close up on the disc mount? Never seen one like that before :?

Will do Mark...it's just a standard Merlin bolt on jobbie.
