Very nice Hann, only one ring on the front:w00t:

[Hanneke]

Yep Don't need more than that for cross I reckon, and less to go wrong!!! 36T on the fron, 11/34 on the back, should get me round ok

Daz, that cable looks tight in the photo, I agree, but in reality it isn't. Must be the angle or the flash...

It is very light and it is going to get muddy tomorrow! It will get taken out into the fields at work, to put it through its paces and make sure everything is adjusted right. It may need some tweaking here and there...

The wheel were built for me, Mavic open pro rims and Hope pro III hubs. Forgotten what the spokes were, but there are plenty of them to give the wheels the strength they need to cope with Three Peaks CX. Tyres are Conti Twister Pro's, they are brilliant!

Ah very nice bike Hann. What wheels are on it?
Hope its not going to stay that clean.
My Lyra Cross is already caked in mud after a ride on it yesterday. No picture yet sorry,
Been fine tweeking it tonight after 90 mins on rollers.

Also spent 30 odd minutes truing an Ambrosio wheel. Another saving from the bike shop.
You dont need a truing stand as most people think.

Hann whats that cable that looks very tight ?

Electronic shifting will def sell into the market. Cant see the point unless your racing or a pro.For me its the what for ?You see enough riders abusing normal indexing never mind electronic. I can see big bills to maintain it.Bike shops will love it

Looks quite "lumpy" to me & I don't like the way Campagnolo cover derailleurs in carbon, it looks a bit tacky.....not that I can afford it. However if I could afford electronic gear switching I'd prefer the Di2.
