It's really sweet mate, though I agree with Dave about the chain and the tyres, I'd also drop the seat post an inch or so, and pull the bars back a tad. :coolsmiley: :daumenhoch:

like it alot  :smitten:

Not 100% on the chain  :-\

But if we all liked the same it would be boring  :daumenhoch:
I might actually build a bike this year instead of just hoarding parts :)

Colours are great, and very cool frameset. VC10s look a little tall in my opinion and skinwall Comp llls would look better but so long as your happy that's all that matters.

Great build.

thats a great bike and a lovely build sir , i love vectors myself as well and have a couple  :smitten:, you were very lucky getting them forks as well , as said i really like it but i'd ditch the flex fighter with them bars on ,seatpost down a bit and get them bars back a bit we've all been pulled up on having the bars too far forward at some point  :daumenhoch:, although these were a race bike i'm liking the look of the whitewalls on there, very very nice that mate and i love them massive bars as well

Lovely build  :smitten:

I have to say, the chain is a bit 'in your face' but i can see why you went for it. Again, the seatpost could do with coming down a few inches but thats just preference. Its an awesome bit of kit  :daumenhoch:  :coolsmiley:
