the stem on my list going for a 90mm

Because charge grips rule
Just tested a set of their thin grips - very nice.

Well you need to get rid of the red seatclamp now as it stands out too much
And some blue caliper caps would look nice too, i replaced the gold with red ones on my inbred, looks much nicer...you need to get a special tool but it only cost a few quid, crc have them.0 -
you should get some gold bits to match the calipers... speaking of which i have a gold seatpost clamp, gold spacers and gold skewers for sale in the for sale section 0

loving the on one 8) 8) 8) gave me a few idea's like cables and and resovar caps do you need to rebleed once top caps are removed.0 -
You can swap the reservoir caps without rebleeding if you are careful, just top up the reservoir with fluid when putting the new cap on. The bore caps however need a full system bleed. Wasn't a problem for me as i was already changing hoses, connectors etc. Its only a 10 min job per brake to bleed them up anyway.0
