Looks nice - I like a Hutch, but one question, why is the brake mounted on the underside of the brake bridge?  That way you get very inefficient braking as the rotation of the wheel pulls the brake down generating high levels of flex on the caliper, mounted on the topside of the brake bridge the brake pushes against the seat stay giving better braking as it does not flex as much.  Just curious!

Nice, liking that black and gold effect. Bit like a pair of top end Ultra Burners!

Martyc,
Brake has been mounted underside due to the length of the caliper, its a shimano tourney, and with the combination of the caliper and the 1.5 araya aero's its the only way i could get the brake to work.
Probably need an mx 1000 for it, but i doubt that its ever gonna get ridden anyway.
cheers for the comments.
