Here is my new bike nothing too fancy but its pretty solid for a second hand bike, I realised today I need to buy a lock ring for it:

first, you put phil hubs, cog, and lockring on a 27inch conversion?
you put a tri-spoke wheel on a 27inch conversion? it looks like you laced your lovely phil hub to cxp22's? I love my cxp22's but they are not deserving of a phil hub. What is wrong with putting phil hub to mavic wheels? |

I've tried to get some bike parts here in iceland, but it is hopeless :) And it is so expensive to buy parts and ship them over, I can double the price when it has arrived :P |

i could lay down comfortably on a tobtube that long + those horns.
looks nice though. |
that's where being 6'3" and a short 3ttt stem comes in handy. thanks
|
ummm... you're gonna wrap those, right? With the cable routing holes and all...
|

JayNev you need to take those stickers off of your v's.

Jay, is that a 60 or a 63?

man you werent kidding about that rear tire clearance. I looked at your picture on velo and that is a tight fit. what tires are you using?
|
The clearance isn't as tight as it looks; the photo is a bit misleading, but it is tight. The tires are cheap Kendas at 700 x 25C. I am going to swap out tires after this weekend.
