Well I've been looking for a winter project for some time now and following the sale of my 08 Orange 5 I needed something I can race next year in the SXC, now the season has finished so this gave me the perfect opportunity to collect parts and build a racy bike over the winter 
Now, the topic is titled On-One Scandal, however as I write this the frame hasn't arrived yet...but the first parts have!
RaceFace Ride stem:
RaceFace 670mm bars:
Frame and post on way so will prob be updating this as stuff arrives
Cheers Davy
