That's a bugger about the time, but not a bad result mate for a complete new build, created from thin air & a pile of parts.  |

That's a quality bit o' kit! Lovely. Nothing more rewarding than creating a beautiful sculpture like that, then being able to jump on it & ride off into the sunset! Congratulations! |

That certainly is a thing of beauty! Hope you're keeping the plain paint, what colour is it? That neutral sort of colour really shows off the bike!
