Not a bicycle part, but it will be a huge component in my fitness in the new year!

Innov-8 Road-X 233's I'll be stepping down from my Road-X 255s to these before I'll try the Road-X 195s again!

Picked up my Scott Scale RC from the shop yesterday. Frame bought here on the hub for a song, built up with bits and pieces until I get cash to fit her out properly. Can't wait to get her up to Tokai.

SRAM XX good-as-new RD (thanks to Norm)

 

 

 

 

2012 Frame is still coming, thanks to Lee.

 

 

 

Still a long way to go with this build, but half the fun is gathering the parts.

Just the rims for now, building the wheels will come in time. I will get Hope Rear and I found an awesome Lefty front hub from Italy that might be worth a try, eliminates the need to remove the brake to take off the wheel.

This project is going to take a while ohmy.png hope to have it ready by Barberton end of Jan.
