I posted a pic in the C&V mountain bike drop bar conversion thread, but figure here is appropriate as well.
This really is a well thought out build... looks like SA hubs front and rear with the SA XRDC out back.
I have one of these hubs I am planning to build up but just don't know where I will use it yet.
We went from -27 to thawing over the course of a day here as a Chinook blew in from the south... this brings warmer and wetter Pacific air and the little bit of freezing rain has made the roads like curling ice.
Despite that... I have been riding the new fixed gear sans studs (albeit carefully) and swapped the rear cog last night to lower my gearing just a smidge which feel great.
