That looks good Pete, 😀

I look forward to seeing it draped in all manner of bivvy goodness 😉

Sub 500 green queens huh? How much did the RS Revs set you back if you don’t mind me asking!

Looking good btw 8)

Looks good. How many hands is it?

@Stu I’ll bag it up tomorrow and post some pics on the bivvy thread, need to check my packing.

@chojin Revs and frame where a classified combo deal

@Big Pete – cheers hands??? it’s a 18″

I need to do that, need a cheap bike to take around the world with me……

Nice bike by the way!

For sale for £2k 😉

nice one – I’m looking for a 456/Inbred for exactly the same reason!

I thought I’d hijack your thread rather than starting another.

I had a budget of £350 and no more to build this for a friend.

Bl00dy lovely. What a great frame, nice build. ENJOY!

Great bike for less than the price of a Suntour/Dart forked, Alivio geared piece of rubbish and all the bits will last longer.
