  • Nice work, a good frame can be revitalised year after year.

    The 6800 brakes are really nice, the difference was night and day when I put those on my bike.

    There's a 2mm spacer under there taunting me. It will have its day.
  • You could also remove the 15mm cone headset cover if your back can stand it!

    Why not take out the spacer and have a less angled stem?

    Aesthetics.. wanted it to match closer to the top tube although it isn't quite vertical.
    It also meant cutting off less steerer tube.
