So i finally had more than 5 minutes in Cape Town and took her for a run, the bigger cog up front, the new flat pedals (these things are great......until i fall and they tear me apart!!) and flattened and sprayed the XT brake cover from silver to black.

Yup. It's been a while. I'm doing about 100km a week on her now and I'm getting restless to build something new. Can't find what I want so looking at custom titanium frame

I wish. I spoke to Dave to start the order but it's a year until he can deliver so it's not really an option.

It's clear I'm not reading enough (on the hub) in the right places. A very cool build, and I'm impressed with the frame break for the belt drive.

 

Some homework for me.

Any advice where to sell this bike?? Looking to pass her on to help finance the new build.

Go advertise it at you're nearest hipster hangout, it should sell pretty soon. [emoji6]
