FSA XL II headset
USE seatpost with ti bolts (old style)

    Er so you have a pile of bits, not quite a build yet.
    Should probably post in the Your Mountain Bike section though.

    well frame has been a 10 week painful wait but due any day. Had a little trouble with SS insisting on the use of sapim nipples which i had to source from germany (because i wanted green ones)

    Sounds like a nice build, look forward to seeing the pics.
    You wont be dissapointed by the frame and wheels, running almost the same myself.

    Your spec looks nice, but as a rating of your build I'll give you 0/10 so far......
