My New Steed - Sutty

Recommended Posts

After loads of playing around I've finally got my bike pretty much how I want it.

Got a Caisso frame and stripped and polished it because the paintwork was in

poor nick. I've polished the front more than the rear, as is obvious from these

pics. Every time I start polishing it I end up getting bored and going riding instead.

Also got the Heatsink Bash and done the singlespeed thing too. Really liking how it

rides, Just need to get out and about more now.

Spec is as follows:

Frame- Koxx Caisso

Forks- Echo Control

Headset- FSA Pig

Stem- Echo Control

Bars- Adamant

Front Brake- Hope Mono Trial 06 (180mm rotor)

Rear Brake 07 HS33 with Coustsink CNC Pads and Echo Booster

Front Wheel- Echo cnc rim on Echo Disc hub

Rear Wheel- Chris King ISO on Try-All rim

Drivetrain- Middleburns w/ Heatsink Bash and 18t chainring, 13t Surly on the rear

Tensioner- Rohloff

I'm happy with the bike at the moment. Just going to improve things as i need to.

Things in the pipeline are 203mm rotor, Hope (shorter) Stem and a new chain.

Thanks for looking guys.

I fell off when my bars were tilted back! only hopped to a curb after building my bike up again.

Tilt them forward. Will feel loads nicer to ride. I have mine (old Zoo bars) so they're back a tiiiny bit.
