JCheer Jon.

So tonight I got a few more bits done, internal cable routing done (still need a brake olive for my saints)

Tried several different routings to get what "works"

Image
So just waiting on my wheels and two or three little bits and the minion will be good to go!

No F'ing wheels! Long story short, chelmer only gave the wheels to the builder yesterday.

Also need the brake hose olive and bleed then the shock bush which should be here in the morning.

Well the build saga continues.
Still waiting on the wheels but a very kind man has leant me a set ;)
Still waiting on the bushes from CRC that I paid extra for next day delivery back on Thursday.

Initial impression is that there aint much tyre room, mild wobble on the wheel rubs on the inner frame.
So I have put the Fox rear shock on, adjusted the cockpit etc, feels comfy and definitely smaller than the 29er ;)

Look forward to trying it round the block tomorrow.
