Nice Dude, real nice

Shame about the saddle tho

Finished building this today, new frame, forks and headset, then transplanted everything off my Peugeot. Only problems were seatpost (27.2mm as opposed to 24mm on the Pug), front mech - needed a braze on instead of clamp type, and swopped the silver Shimano long reach calipers of the Peugeot for matching black Veloce ones.
Full Veloce black groupset, except front mech which is now Chorus, overkill for a commuter I know, but my LBS let me have a it brand new and boxed for £22, kerching!
Tyres are a temporary loan off the CAAD as not enough clearance for the 25's I had on the Pug, saving up now for some Gatorskins.
Not fitted all the lights yet as my brackets are too small due to the narrow seatpost of the Peugeot, grrr!
