My Specialized Cross Bike

ScottieR3

Just finished my build of my cross bike, rode into work on it this morning, 10miles and it felt fantastic, Comfortable, Quick(apart from the headwind) and nimble.

After much thought over the Avid shorty brakes i must say they are superb, think i've set them up correctly!!(Must have done as they work really well)

Can't wait to get it off road onto some trails now

Let me know what you think!!









Thanks in advance

What made you build it rather that buying a cross bike off the peg?

It looks mean all in black, I love overtaking the mountain bikes at the local trails They always catch me up on the down sections though

You gonna race her?

I'd got to many parts to just have sitting around, and got the frame for a bargain off a club member!! 8)

It would be wrong not to race her

Looking forward to it
