Just finished building this little project up from scratch starting with the frame a few months back after getting hold of components from all over the place thanks to various people

Just need to choose a chainguide now for when I go out on the rougher stuff, was thinking maybe a Gamut P30 what do you guys think who are in the knowhow?

So here it is & some of the spec:

Scott Voltage Octatech alloy frame
Rockshox Pike coil forks with Uturn & motion control 95-140mm
Avid Juicy Carbon brakes 185mm rotor front, 160mm rotor rear
Sram X9 drivetrain with a Sram XO DH 11-26t cassette
Truvativ Holzfeller 36t Chainset with bash & BB to match
Mavic 317 Wheelset
Scott FR Oversized Rizer bars
FSA XL Piggy headset
Titec 2bolt seatpost

Ahh I have a pair of the Nuke Proof Neutron Pedals but I've taken them off to service them & DMR's are on for the time being.

Any idea's for a nice saddle? I thinking a smaller saddle with alot less padding & light brown from fizik or someone similar would look nice...

Got an Easton Havoc 50mm stem that I can put on or do you think thats too much the opposite way? The current one fitted is 120mm long & does feel abit over the edge...
