On the S/S I've got deores on tektro rotors. Brakes spot on.
I'm only doing this though as I'm a tightwad.

Been told by the LBS that the bike will be with the importer Wednesday and they'll get it Thursday/Friday depending on which courier they use. Which means I can build the bike! Well, not until Monday as I have shit late shifts at work, but Monday! So fucking happy now!

This is the build thread  But I'll get the time lapse set up and no doubt take a good few photos through out the build phase. Also get to see the awesome flashing light up dust caps a mate got me for secret Santa. Totally makes the wheels. |

A time lapse video would be pretty impressive.. You posh git.
To be fair, I would LOVE some flashy valve caps but the folk I ride with are all a bit old fashioned and don't like modern technology!

Just have the GoPro to thank for that  Ahh, these aren't that fancy, Hawkins Bazaar £5 specials, still look totally awesome! Hopefully they'll last more than one ride! |

It's just the fact it flashes that scares them! I think I'll go a look at my collection of bits now. Anywho, I'll look forward too seeing the finished article |

If they use Yodel I will find the distributor and package him up and send him via yodel to somewhere in Scotland. |

Only gone and got a response from the Director of Global Sales didn't I!
My response:
So I'm thoroughly impressed with Knolly now, I've not been fobbed off with some generic customer service reply. Very happy with this so far!

Thankfully I live on my own, so it's a VERY Merry Christmas atm! Had to put the Five back together for a ride the other day, so the Mrs helped me strip it back down, she didn't do too bad tbh!
But now the for the wait today, just waiting for that message to say it's arrived. £20 says it doesn't.

It'll be built before the days out |
