    very nice mate, are the sram grips specifically for twisters? or have you just chopped them down?

    how are the gear cables?

    Sram do different lenghts of grips for use with grip shift so it a 110mm grip cut to 100mm and a 130 mm grip... cables are really good because you can run the internal sleave from the shifter to the rear mech, no muck...

    what is the weight all in (for the brakes)

    I assume this is French petrol - be careful in reverse - the car will retreat rapidly at the least provocation.

    Good work on going for the big wheels.

    Also loving the Lynskey, you don't see many of them around. I've had mine a little over five months now and love it to bits.

    DT forks are fantastic they handle so well, confidence inspiring super light... as for the 1x9 it was begging for it it was single speed first at 18lb but it just wanted to go faster... thank you all for your comments so far.
    Oh and the Lynskey on the sofa played a big part in me choosing the frame in the first place... good work.
