Looks great the bit i like the most that most people at a bike meet will look at it and think that's a nice tarted up firestorm and not realise its a spondon frame etc

Looks absolutely fantastic and I like the numberboards. When you have recovered your wallet I think you should look at getting some Mori high levels. That would really put the finishing touches on it. I see you have also added some lever protectors too. Nice to see a shiny header pipe at the front too. You should be really proud of what you have achieved there :clap: :clap: :clap:

Like the number boards. Two fat ladies, is it?
One blue, one yellow?
It's not falling off, it's an upgrade opportunity.

Apologies for the hijack, it'll be short. Is there anything particularly tricky in buying from Jauce? Protocol, shipping, accounts needed etc.
