So my old Giant has given up it's vital components to give life to my new bike......
This
Has become
this......... to help build this :
(excuse the feet and dog)
a nice matt finish
aero post
awwww yeah! (and no I'm not going to get pinarello decals.....................might get Chinarello made though
)
so this is what was built up.......but sadly not ridden yet.............. the frame was sent with a bottom bracket that had a bent spindle......so a replacement was sent with enough time to install it before I moved interstate..... where the movers managed to bend the spider on the crank......which let me raid the credit card to buy these :
for $150 AUD
1/3 of the rrp..... which are winging their way to me right now so im a little bit excited.....

Hey, rgliniany
your bike chinarello on a Flyxii frame (i mean it's fr-308 ?) live this time? How long (km) you ride on is? - i very interested this...
Sorry, but my expirience with seller flyxii - not luck! very not luck
His send me very terrible frameset, poor workmanship and after i ride less than 100km - broken stock fork.
Link to photos maybe after moder "ON" my first post.
And after me other rider come frame from flyxii but painted - on the lacquer coating (on the paint) has two cracks.
it is necessary to send back for his (own) money.
And this is not a pleasant option. Loss of money and most importantly time-out until they receive a frame, coordinate and send a new .. if you feel that it is a warranty case.
As a whole seller Flyxii (his other site/brand x-goods), after a long dialogue(disput) - does not inspire confidence, dishonest seller.
Upd
I wait new frame chinarello, from other seller and hope when new variant - better quality and friendly services than Flyxii.

I feel your pain, I had a beautiful Bianchi stolen in Sydney in 2001, and it still annoys me to think about it.
If it's not too painful to talk about, is the internal gear cable routing on the frame of the full-length outer variety, or are there stops where it goes into the frame and only the inner cable passes through it?Specialized Roubaix Elite 2015

there were stops on the frame and the cable routing was flared just out of the stop.... but on some of mine the routing was a little long and had to be cut down to fit nice...
but a really nice finish to the frame and seatpost....and the best bar wrap i had done up to that point....so that sucked.... It's a boy , It's a boy , I Shouted Running Into The Street With Tears Running Down My Face.....
