Yeah I am trying to but again was surprised at how difficult it is to find nice cable brakes levers.

55 mate, 565 top tube.

Ya see, that's a new one to me with the short mid long reach calipers. They're in the post so I can check and document the result.

A boy I've been going to for years builds a good wheel and he's building from the supplier, 30mm,sapim spokes good solid hubs, unbranded no frills, hopefully bomb proof but black black black which is the aesthetic I'm going for.

Yeah I saw those Andels, didn't like that classic look for this but they do look good there so they're a possibility for sure.

Hi lads n lassies!

New to the forum, I picked up an All City Big Block frameset yesterday and will be building her up asap. Cycling and MTB is all I do but I'm a total noob to bike building so might be nippin' some of yer heeds, as they say, for help! Will be mostly used on the streets of Edinburgh, think cobbles and sideways rain.

Oh and yes I do like the colour way, a lot. :oD

Started a "Current Project" thread n' all.

Awrite Troops!

New to the forum, so thanks for having me! I bought a cheapy single speed on Gumtree (please dont ask what it was) to bomb about the city on (Edinburgh) and while I already have 5 steeds in the stable I was bitten by this particular two wheeled bug and so here I am with my first ever bike build project.

Hoping you lads n lassies will be nice enough to let me bounce ideas and ignorance off ya!

So as I am sure you are aware this is an 2020 All City Big Block and yes, I genuinely love the colour way, so there! (From Billy Bisland Cycles, Glasgow. Awesome shop!) Also, this will be built up with F+R brakes, I have a fairly bad case of the Cheese Knees after a disagreement with a Taiwanese taxi which I guess you could say I lost.

Now this is when the ignorance comes in...the planned build...if something is wrong or doesn't work feel free to furnish me with your scorn and disdain.

Wheels: Being built up locally, happy with that.
Brakes: Shimano 105 with BLB CNC levers.
Headset: Cane Creek 40 Series.
BB: Had Shimano UN55 110mm fitted...before I knew you match up square taper BB to crankset.
Crankset:...Christ knows! I think I want the Andel (TRS21-7122) that All City rebrand, trying to make that happen. Scared of Miche. If I have to, I would go with Sugino 75 if I can find them reasonably priced in black.
Tyres: Some 28 Gatorskins, I guess.

Everything else, finishing kit et al, will be bits I have lying around, riser bar for now.

So, what laughable omissions and mistakes have I made? :o)

You're like an evil genius in an underground lair, I bet you chuckle ominously ALL THE TIME!

...add a bit of culture. Left in Deutsch.

Right lets get crackin' with this thread. Old tag, Ice House, Hermitage.

Some essentially brand new MTB tyres...

One E Thirteen TRSR Tyre
29 x 2.35

One TRS+ Tyre
29 x 2.35

Used I think once, maybe twice. Never set up tubeless but of course tubeless ready.

£40 the pair?

Yeah me too, must be these, so still going it seems.

Right enough, I've actually got some Andel cranks in silver on an old beater I could use (with what seems to be a discontinued part number on it) but building up something new so after black. Cheers tho!

I think Andel are the manufacturer @M_V http://www.andel.com.tw/products.php?cid=8 pages full of different products.

Right enough its the square taper ones I'm after but in black. Got a link for yours @Double_J ?

Out of curiosity I went through with an "inquiry" on the Andel website asking where I could get some and they replied pretty quick saying I could buy directly from them...will see how they do that.

Alright Troops,

Am I being daft or are Andel cranks, such as those pictured, unavailable to the public? Are they OEM only?

I can only find the fluted, Campag lookalikes.

The ones pictured are, im sure, the All City 612 cranks and I would like some for a non-All City price.

Hi Troops, looking for a year on this Fuji Feather. I have trawled google for a bit looking for that colour way for clues but to no avail. Thanks.

Edit: Potentially 2012?
