Have not posted many of my projects but just spent a bit of time this morning starting my latest project, will have to wait on a few small parts on order to finish.
There have been a few members of the cycling club i cycle with have bought stainless steel bikes at vast sums of money and thought i will build one, any way bought a slightly used Genesis Volare frameset that did not sell on Ebay (seller lived close and he know some cyclists i cycle with)
The wheels and tyres where bought new on auction from Ebay, the groupset a used Ultegra again from ebay, most other parts will be from my spares and the very nice Ritchey pedals where sent to me from davidclane (many thanks again david) .
So far the bike is looking great and as long as a few small bits arrive i should have a stainless steel Volare for about a quarter (or Less) of the price many are paying for a new bike.
