Dolan Build

Meirionatron

I spent a while building this bike, I was on a small budget (ended up spending just less than £400 all together) so most parts were bought second hand, but I like this bike it is much better than my old 2003 Giant OCR The pictures are a little crappy but you get the idea. Let me know what you think

Looks good.

Head tube looks longer than I'm used to, but I'm short so more or less any headtube on my bike is as small as it can be.

Nice, that's a good looking build for the price.
