Just picked up my ScandAl. Really happy with the result. I wanted something totally different to my full suss so gone for 1x9 and rigid forks.


A rough list of components and price (could be wrong - cant remember exactly) :-

OnOne ScandAl frame £80
OnOne Max wheels inc hubs £100
Orange f8 rigid forks £30
Maxm carbon seatpost £20
Charge spoon saddle - free - stolen off jonny the leyther when he went getting me a beer from the fridge
Shimano deore cassette and chain (cant remember exact models) £30
Sram x7 deraillier - free (dont ask)
Sram x7 shifter, shimano brakes, pads around £60 (I think)
Scott Cougar tyres, Truvativ Firex cranks and ring all took off my boardman
Scor bars and stem nicked off my brothers BMC trailfox
Clarks Vice grips £8
Nukeproof electron pedals £30
LBS (pasteyboy) charged me £50 put it all together and he included quick release DT swiss skewers and an attachment that goes on my cables that you unclip and you can inject lube to keep the cables happy. Top bloke!
And my favourite - orange bottle cage bolts £3 off amazon - when i told my LBS bloke he just said "and so it begins". He knows the score.

Ive sold a few parts here and there too and made around £150 so Im pretty happy with the final cost.

Oh dear!

He'll have you pimipn it up with red bits before you can say "wait, how much was that again??"

leythervegas

Yes its a large. Pasteyboy did a really good job with the build. Cant recommend him highly enough for anyone who needs an honest LBS in the leigh/wigan/warrington/st helens area. Know what you mean about the red though, he loves it doesnt he. I've seen his bikes in the flesh though and they're things of beauty and I'm not a blingy fan.

I've not seen his shop yet, but I assume from his bikes that it is decorated entirely in clashing colours, with gold and red featuring heavily, and carbon, lots and lots of carbon.

Cheeky tw@ts only just spotted this, you have me all wrong ha ha ha ha ha ha ha.

pastey_boy

also i reckon with you being an optician you would be able to manage clearer photos

Sorry to highjack, but which is your shop please Pastey Boy?

leythervegas

I'll answer in case he doesn't look here again pal. He's on the main road in Golborne near Warrington. Cant recommend him enough, he knows his stuff and he won't rip you off.

And im an optician, not a photographer! Crap iPhone camera doesn't help

No worries i will let you off for the fuzzy pics, How can i hold that against you after such a glowing report. Glad you like the bike, have you got her dirty yet ?

leythervegas

Oh yes, been commuting every day the off road way and took her out for a few hours on Sunday. Really happy with it but makes my Boardman feel like its made of pig iron. Got a minor chain guide problem but pretty sure you can fix that with your eyes shut pal.

pastey_boy

ive chased them bolts up so they should appear sometime soon. once fitted the guide can sit lower and do what its supposed to. anyhows im off to bed, very very busy tomorrow.

Updated picture taken with a proper camera! New Nukeproofpedals have made a massive difference to the ride.

pastey_boy

whats happened to the chain device ?

leythervegas

It came loose and kept jamming the chain. It spins around where it is attached to the BB. I took off the black part and span the rest round out of the way. Ther chain hasnt come off yet so I can wait till the bolts come in to get it sorted.
