After it's first big test the new steed is muddy n scuffed but otherwise totally unfazed. Very happy with that. AND I didn't suffer with cramps either 😀 result! #carbonfiber #homemade #mtb #londontobrighton

Covered 43 miles in last 2 days getting the bike and myself ready for Saturdays London to Brighton charity ride. Bike rides very nicely. Smooth, light, even pedals up the hills well! If only my legs felt as good... #carbonfiber #bicycle #mtb #homemade #L2B #britishheartfoundation

Got to admit I really don't enjoy setting up bagging. Requires patience and attention to detail, neither of which are my strong points! Especially this stretchy film, breathe too heavily and it wafts away... #carbon #homemade #bicycle

I seem to get through bottom bracket bearings at a crazy rate. And what's even more annoying is that every bb "standard" seems to have inherent weaknesses. Well I've had enough!!! Just got these monsters from #SKF. If these wear out within the next 2 years I'll eat my own saddle! #monster #homemade #bicycle #carbon
