Any build plans?
This is going to be my new winter bike.
I have just received a Shimano 105 groupset for a great price from Wiggle, and I will use an Ultegra wheelset I have lying around.
Bars, stem, seat post, saddle and bar tape will all most likely be black.

I wasn’t going to give this one its own thread, but then I remembered my Bob Jackson build and thought it might have a nice degree of synchronicity.
Anyway, yesterday I drove up to the wilds of rural Lincolnshire and spent a very enjoyable couple of hours in the company of frame building legend Dave Yates.
Dave has now retired from building. This frame - advertised on here- was the last (more or less) frame hanging up in his workshop.
There is another hanging up - also advertised on here and now sold - but that is unpainted, so in my book doesn’t count.
Anyway, currently on my kitchen counter:
-
Mine arrived this evening, while I was at work. I got a separate package containing brake cables, which Wiggle had initially forgot to include.
Great price and good service, well done Wiggle.
-
I bought one of the groups from Wiggle (which is supposedly on its way). They confirmed that the rear derailleur can be used as either direct mount or standard fit.
If it works, should be a real bargain.

I paid £100 more for mine
