Got this the other week from Spillers3, Was in a rush to get it built so no previous photo's as I stripped it straight away and dropped it off to SBD. Fantastic job as always. I've had some issues with the bottom bracket 20mm odd ball size. So it's a mish-mash from my parts bin, Has a 22mm spacer with duct tape round the spindle :LolLolLolLol:
Also had some problems with the rear hub, Loose ball one side and sealed on the other side. Axle is loose in the sealed bearing. But got lucky at the weekend and bought some Sinz wheels with blade spokes. Only things I'm not over keen on are the tyres, Needs some smoother ones it is used for the school run. And the front rim, Might take some wet/dry to the sidewall. Missus is getting some swirly decals made for it soon.
