Won't mention that your tiles need pressure washing, or that your hoses need shortening, but just a little worried you've got enough seat post in the seat tube - and some below the top tube junction?

Looks great with those forks on it though - and should be a top ride. Very nice.

Is a 400mm post, took a while to find one.

Yeah agree about the hoses but money has run out ๐Ÿ™

First ride yesterday.

The bolts that came with it were rubbish and rounded off when I got the allen key within 6 inches of them.

Replaced with M4 bolts that require a ring spanner to tighten and lock nuts and much better.

Something tells me you should have waited until the summer like the rest of us for when the large frames come back in stock!

It's a nice build though, well done.

Jases progress with 'logo matching up' over the last term has been very disapointing.

One of the three sexiest singlespeeds in Woburn I reckon!
