They are a pretty cool little bit of engineering. I got a ck for it as a backup but as soon as I felt how solid and smooth it was I put the ck in the parts drawer for another project.

I like how it looks. The contrasting black and silver goes with the build. I'll post some better pics of it soon. Likely with snow tires though

Likely not til the weekend. Dark in the am before work and dark when I get home. Dreary dining room shots don't cut it

Re:

Its done. I did a photo shoot today. Pics don't really do it justice, but at least people can see it complete. I swapped the 737 cranks out for M900s, added a 1st Generation Syncros Stem, 737 pedals, and some other bits.

The only thing I can think of that would make it prettier would be a Syncros Ti Post and bar. I have a titec bar on it how ... tried a Syncros, but it was too much black.

Anyway, I am really happy with how this turned out. Its like brand new again
