What on earth are those drop outs? They look like they came off a Spitfire!

Very nice. Might've got 10/10 if you'd lined the tyre logo's up with the rim stickers. And your mooring posts need weeding. 😀

The dropouts are a little "industrial". The design was to allow for an inboard disk mount with mudguard and rack fittings.

tthew. Never thought of aligning the tyres with the rims, I always align with the valve hole. I think I might change now- it makes more sense.

Two more upgrades and then it will be complete- thomson Carbon flatbar and a Brooks Cambium to completely finish it.

It rides so well- feels so much quicker than the Longitude! Which is no surprise really.

Good job you've got that mud guard thing on as it looks filthy out...

Remove the rim stickers, it prevents the need to line them up with tyre logos!
