That is looking super awesome. Love the blue & white.

 

How was the first ride?

Took her out to the Howick Trails on Saturday afternoon. Had an absolute blast. Quiet and simply... and a pleasure to clean :clap: .

 

Took my SS kit across from the 26" bike so currently running a 32/16 which was tough at times but not ridiculous. 18 and 20T sprockets on their way so will see what difference that makes.

 

Will be hitting Cascades tomorrow :eek: .

Not sure about weight but its pretty light. My guess would be around the 10kg mark.

My SS rides like a dream, but seems it's short some pimping.

 

Now, who wants to donate me some time and money?

 

Seriously though, I need to strip my frame and polish it, polish the cranks, get some silver hubs built onto silver rims and get a silver cockpit.

 

That's all......

Nice bike, just watch those kcnc quick release on the back. Mine did not fare well on my SS, kept coming loose.

Havn't had any problems on the back. Front however seems to be a bit of a problem. Rigid fork doesn't help much.

 

Sucks considering how expensive they are. :(
