Describe your rig

Interesting brake set up. I'd like to take a good look at that.

When you give it the clean it so urgently desrEves, put yer seat straight!

I clean the thing all the time, hate dirty unloved bikes, this was taken just after my river bank circuit, i must have an odd shaped undercarriage cos the seat is perfect for me! My other bikes are all like that with no probs. It does look odd though
The brakes are very good anchors, but a little heavy, and you have to have seperate gear changers, but they dont clog and need no maintenance except pad changes. Works for me

A mixture of cheapish new parts and once swanky but now old and tired used parts. This is my first cross bike so I am still experimenting with the setup.

Frame: Columbus X-Wing
Wheels: Ksyrium SL
Tyres: Michelin Mud2
Brakes: Froggleg
Mechs: Campag Veloce
Chainset: Campag Record compact (48/34)
Cassette: Campag Centaur (12-25)
Levers: Campag Chorus
Bars: Deda Newton shallow drop
Seat: Fizik Arione
Pedals: Eggbeaters (changed after the picture was taken)

Not too happy with the front brakes (judder, squealing) so probably going to change them at some point.
