New forks, discs and chainset. Isn't she lovely?
Going up and down Cadair Idris on Wednesday.
New frame would finish that off lovely mate.
Very nice, love that grey.
Enjoy Cadair!

What have you put on? Can't tell specifics from the pic - for a full size pic somewhere on Flickr or such like?
Anyway - looks the dogs whatevers no matter what - always interested in what people have put on their 5's though.
Nice colour too BTW !!
Upgrading from an Orange 5 and you left the frame? Odd.
You could always take that ugly piece of black plastic from between your forks.....
you've left the little orange tabs on your discs 😉
Does seem to be the year for metallic grey bikes with white forks. A few nice ones popping up. Very understated for a 5!
best colour for a 5.

FROM an Orange 5? 😯 Are you mad?
Previous bits were a transfer from the old Rocky Mountain ETS-X. Which I broke. Oops.
Looks good !
I have fork envy now, although have you got 15mm ?
New chainset - have you gone 10spd throughout ??
Agree about the frame colour, I'm 'upgrading' from a white 2008 five to a chrome grey 2011, and yes, did buy some white coloured forks but I went budget with some RS Sektors 😕
BUT - the front mudguards - they just don't do it for me ! (Yet i know they'll keep the crap out and not affect the performance etc etc)
Standard Hope hub, so I'm using regular QR's. "Tranz-X". Feels stiff though.
10-speed cassette, 3-ring chainset (42/32/24).
The Talas (2011 RLC FIT) cost an arm and a leg, but I had a spare arm and leg handy so I thought, "Why not"? The previous fork was a 130mm TF-tuned Revelation with "pop-lock". For sale at some stage...
