    I agree, thay are rubbish and heavy. I think you'd better post them to me (free of charge of course) and I'll dispose of them for you.

    Hmmm, I still have to order my wheels, however, I am still waiting for my overtime pay to come through.... dammit!!!

    Although I have some nice bits waiting at home for me:

    FSA Orbit X headset
    FSA Gravity Extreme double plus bash
    Carbon Spacers (Superstar)
    Cyclo-tools headset press

    Was debating (being impatient) to start the build tonight, but I have decided against it and am now sticking to the Saturday morning/afternoon plan......

    Still waiting for my Goodridge Carbon gear cable set to come through from CRC

    They simply wont go with your bikes colour scheme, I'll have to cancel the courier...! :lol:

    It was a choice of crank bros or king wheels, the kings were cheaper!

    Why would you not use it? (Just curious?)

    I think it will be perfect for the jaunts around Swinley/Surrey Hills/Tunnel Hill that I go on, as well as the London to Brighton off road in sept.. (oh cr@p, what have I done!!)

    But of course, pics are mandatory!! Will take a while, won't be with me until at least June 10th... :(

    I am so consumed with jealousy over your carbon 456 purchase, I am going to start spreading rumours that you are a homosexual terrorist who has intercourse with farmyard animals.

    So there :P

    Sram PG970 cassette

    Haha, fair play VW :) I found myself not really using the full sus (in sig) to its potential, and have always been a fan of carbon, and being honest, I prefer riding hardtails... so, 1+1 = 456!

    The Mount Vision is making way for this build :)

    I've not yet signed up for the l2b, shall be doing it tomorrow.. dont the on road one a few times now, need a fresh challenge!


    @Stuart C - lol, whatever takes his fancy.. :P
