Thinking of buying one - show me yours to encourage me and what headset are you using?

In reverse order ...

I'm using an [url= http://www.madison.co.uk/products/cycling/components-hardware/headsets/elite-black-headset-1-inch/ ]M-Part Elite Headset[/url] in mine.
Well thought through, well made, works perfectly, rebuildable. I ordered mine through my LBS (to help them out), and they were very impressed when it arrived.

A couple of pictures (showing a pretty sketchy gearing choice in both!).

'Tis a fairly conservative build I 'spose, but I like comfort and reliability - and it works too - this bike eats distance with no perceptible effort, even with me on it.

๐Ÿ˜‰

I'm considering the longer trail forks and a little front rack for the winter (when I'll carry a bit more stuff), and it'll almost certainly get a triple too at some point.

Would I have another one if something happened to this one? ...
Yeah, no question, it's a great bike.

It get's a lot of compliments too - (when they express any thoughts about it), people often mention the 'great restoration job' I've done on a classic 'clubman' frame of some sort, then go all surprised looking when I tell them it's a current frame.

I edited my post to 'nothing to see here' as I'd made a weak joke, when you spotted your double post. Didn't mean to harsh your buzz.

I can do a killer deal if you'd like one!
