Since the demise of my 29er I've today taken the bars seat and post off and returned them to my JBC where they came from so I can start riding it again (been over 2 years since I've ridden it) Parts like the wheels cassette brakes and shifters will stay on the 29er and I've made use of the parts bin for now to complete the bike, so it's not as high spec as it once was but still a tasty bike.

So this is where I started the reassembly after a good clean and polish


and some close up shots of it put together. Some unusual spec's of this bike you may notice are it's a 26 inch carbon mountain bike frame matched to 700c wheels a carbon cyclocross fork and more unusual are a compact road crank and Ultegra derailleur.


note how close the big ring is to the chain stay no problems with it though.


wheels came from my Scott P1 Sportster. I intend to sell that frame and fork on ebay some time along with other parts.








It's been far to windy and wet to take the bike outside for full pic's so that'll come later.
