    That looks very nice. Even moreso when you consider the cost.

    Agree with other comments that it needs some subtle colour enhancements.

    Looks good, big D. So far, the only change I'd make would be for a shimano rear hub. I got tired of the hope CLAK CLAK CLAKing away :lol:

    Good work, needs more Lime though.

    doesnt everyone!!

    You need some of this: http://www.onlinebearings.co.uk/rocol-a ... 16449.html

    A thin smear inside the ratchets & pawls pretty much silences it and doesn't affect pickup....

    Nooo leave it more stealth.

    I'm not a huge fan of the blast of coolours we have in biking at the moment. Would change all the green bits on my bike to black or polished if i could.

    It looks good but I have to admit adding complexity to bikes like that seems ridiculous to me. All that gubbins is destroying the purity. God I sound like a hippy.

    Fetch me my rigid fixed gear 29er made from Bamboo please.
    Closet jockey wheel pimp whore.

    Yup, gubbins makes the world go round. You gonna fit a garmin as well to go with the magic button , dropper lever etc and get the full starship enterprise thing going on?
