brake was well expensive, bought pads/adaptors/cable/lever new and it cost £70 bars I bought for £12 secondhand!

Smooth

So glad you did mate They ride really nice, aren't as bad as people think... But admittedly the frames are quite heavy... my full build weighed 12.48kg with a maggie on it (using the official tarty scales!).

Anyone passing by Liverpool? I will pay my way in petrol and parking! Just not up for paying like £35 on the train

Truth, and if he made them out of the same material as the new ones so they held a grind better Good pics, beasty riding as usual

Echo 07 for me, just bought my 3rd one, they hold grinds well and seem stronger than other rims I have used

Haha nice Yeah your lever will be fine, I'm gonna be using one! To be honest the most expensive thing to get hold of is the 4 bolt to vee adaptors and the pads... I had to buy mine new so adaptors were £30 and pads were £25 If you can find some onza adaptors second hand and then buy your pads off tarty then your laughing My vee arms cost me £10 secondhand off ebay and the lever I had kicking around... A clarks cable from tartybikes cost about £4, does the job Hope I have helped! Have a great Christmas

Its really really good, I really can see why all the top riders are starting to use them

Cheers for all the comments, I hope everyones having a good Christmas!! I'm so glad that I decided to go for a vee setup! I put alot of money into the pads/adaptors as I bought them new, theres is a new lever and cable yet to go on. So far so good though, It feels really nice and works very well I will edit my original post at the top and include a spec of the brake.

Changes: New tyres, new back rim/spokes/rimtape Monty 219 bars and a vee Vee brake spec is: Old style avid sd7 arms Old style sd5 lever - soon to be avid new sd7 Coust pads in cnc backings Heatsink 4-bolt to vee adaptors Random crap outer cable with random makro inner off my mums bike!!! - soon to be clarks Big thanks to Adam at tartybikes for building my wheel on Christmas eve and at such short notice. Top bloke thanks alot I would also like to thank heatsinkbikes for sending me such great parts, and somehow managing to get them to me just before christmas! And thanks to Andy Hudson who sent me the bars.
