The bike I'm having built and have been hassling the forum over various threads in the last few months is FINALLY starting to come together!
Thought I should post some photos:
Frame - swedish 'Careba' road frame bought off ebay and supposedly 531 but there have been contrary allegations! Sandblasted and powdercoated british racing green (strip lights and camera flash make it look a little paler than it is). Also lacking any braze-ons which has been a constant source of facepalms. Probably will upgrade this frame to something really snazzy in a year or so. But it looks pretty anyway.
Campagnolo headset that came with the frame has been replaced by a lighter set the shopowner found
Front wheel - Halo Aero rage rim, 32 spoke radial pattern, Shimano 105 hub.
Rear wheel - Halo Aerowarrior rim, 36 spoke, Sturmey Archer 3 speed alloy coaster brake hub
