Lost control of my build

[Flippa]

So, after this little incident took place:

I was fortunate enough to have the insurance pay out for my loss.

 

Cool, I thought, I can build myself a decent SS. Reynolds 853 frame, XT brakes, reasonable wheels.

 

If I look at what arrived in the post today, I seem to have lost sight of my goal somewhat.

I notice you have a problem. Rather hand it over to me :-)

[Ryanpmb]

Haha. You've probably just doubled the initial 'planned' spend with those bad boys!

[nishiki]

I hope you are happy now...

Nothing out of control at all. Looks pretty normal to me.

I think its my problem to solve. Thanks for the offer of help

 

BTW, nice avatar. Been there, done that, bought that T shirt.

Pretty much. Problem is, the frame I was looking at, seems a little pedestrian for these components.

I'll send you some pedestrian components for your pedestrian fame and take your non pedestrian components for my non pedestrian frame

 

What frame(s) are you considering?

Just look at a better one then

Don't you just hate when that happens?

Was considering the Pipedream Skookum in 853, but now I'm leaning towards the Ti Skookum or the Lynskey Ridgeline SL29 or possibly the Kona Raijin

It is about time we get a review of a Pipedream

Nah dude, that Skookum 853 looks the biz...
