Bar tape is a bit shonky, but its my 1st attempt so not too bad? steerer needs trimming down once I am confortable, also gotta stick some heli-tape on the vulnerable bits.

What was the total cost, if you don't mind me asking?

Also what SRAM kit did you go for?

I quite fancy building a CX bike for winter.

Nice bike BTW.

😀

Still think the hoods need to be further up the bars as the 'tops' arnt level with the hoods, so youve got a sort of hump in the middle. But as you say, personal choice just like the stem and the massively set-back post.

Also, you failed the first rule of photoing a bike, chain in big front, small back, cranks level with drive side to the front 😆

This, you know you want to. It will look so much better.

Its not a shopper, your bars are higher than your saddle!

*It looks great btw*

Mine is following close behind in stealth black with flipped stem and shifters up the bars. Just waiting for the wheel build to be done and then the adventures shall begin

1st proper outing tomorrow so will see how it rides (just been round the block so far).

Sram kit is a mix of RED (rear mech, levers & chain), FORCE ( chain set & casette)& RIVAL front mech, GXP TEAM bottom bracket

As far as cost, probably £500 more than I wanted it too!!

Will maybe try flipping the stem at some point, just to appease you lot!!
