[Closed] Bike Build 🙂

Nice. Take pics.

Those tubes are thin, careful with those scissors!

Downtube protector looks a bit, er, flimsy and might stop the back wheel going round 😉

There will be live updates this evening 🙂

The scissors does match the cushions well but I can't help thinking it must be uncomfortable to sit on

If I could have any frame right now it would be one of those, well it would be a one9 RDO but whatever.

Where are the pictures??? You promised live updates 🙁

Are you aware that bedmaker has got his forks on already 😉

Someone is spending a leeeetle too much time enjoying his dinner 🙄

Either that or his wife came home - found the bike she didn't know he'd bought *on the bloody sofa* and he's been sent to his room without his tea. 🙂

Apologies for the not so live updates dates ;-/ a few technique issue haha

Luckily this was a warranty replacement so the good wife does know about it 🙂

Can't finish it off tonight as the new frame has a 142 rear and needs an adaptor for the xx1 cassette ;-/

not the best quality pics...

I do not believe this is live..... is disappoint.

Warranty replacement for a crushed top tube? 😯

No less of the live action build as most done by the time my phone was back working ;-/

I had fingerprint marks underneath the lacquer on my old frame but apart from that spot on!!

Please don't ever clamp that frame (or any other for that matter) by the top tube. It's a lot cheaper to replace a seatpost than a frame if you crush it.

that clamp on the top tube makes me shudder

that will be an extremely fast bike.

Lovely bike but the clamping made me wince.

Don't panic ALL its not clamped in but resting on the top of the frame 🙂

Random but bike related: your scissors remind me of the 2010 Sworks Enduro...

😀

Is it one of those flat bar road bikes, aka a hybrid?

Are you really small, or is that a massive can of lager for when you've done?

Wow, that looks really nice, finish on those niners is so cool.

loads of speedy bits on that bike. 8)

LOVE building a new bike 😆

Finally built 🙂

Nice cat flap, oh and nice bike too.

You have a tartan sausage dog at the door?

(Nice bike BTW)
