A few subtle changes - DMR V8 in White, Lizard skin chainstay protector and Lizard Skin Peaty grips and a QR Hope seat post clamp.

    It's all about the bling baby, allegedly.

    ha ha, yeah, didn't buy Hope to be bling, just trying to get a feel for what is good quality gear to upgrade certain components.
    Got nothing to compare to but early rides are good, maybe thinking of some slightly wider bars, have removed 10mm of spacers already on headset.
    Bit addictive, this upgrading malarkey !!

    Boardmans dont come with QR aswell...well they didnt used to. Hope is a good value bling alternative.

    Nice bike, lovely frames.
