Guys, can we please keep this on topic and over Maverick's bike? I just noticed that the topic is steering off course.... Maverick, did you ever come down to which stem you'll be using with that sexy looking C60?

Quite right, and I am slightly guilty of that, so this is my last straying, and only because I was asked a direct question
DrJeffers wrote:How are you finding the Aspide? Cheers, J
pretty comfortable - I was a little worried that it "dips" in the centre, but it seems fine - it has some small ridges at the back and I do notice that I slide about less on the saddle as a result (a good thing). this is my first aspide, after 20 years of using Selle Italia flites, and right now I prefer the aspide
right-o - lets get back "on-post"

@aguycalledsimon, DrJeffers, kulcha,
I don't quite like the idea of hijacking a person's post, and it's about time I mentioned this. If you're so ever willing to post your bikes, how about having your own built thread for it? A little courtesy goes a long way. Most appreciated.
@irongatsby,
Thanks for the compliments. That said, your PR00 EP is one heck of a bike!
@jimaizumi,
Will put on the 120mm Superlogic and try it out this weekend

@maverick_1 Hmm, well as a noob, i clearly misunderstood forum etiquette, so apologies. But not sure I really understand why it's considered hijacking for others to post 'reply pics' and musings around the central topic (your own C60) - is it really considered more appropriate to start fresh threads at every possible meander in conversation? If so, that seems a bit stuffy and OTT to me (and wasn't obvious in reading a range of other threads over the last few months). I love your build, about to order a OFCG C60 myself, and personally I enjoyed the range of replies to your post from others similarly inspired. Seems obvious to me that this kind of posting will particularly interest people who are going through similar builds, or have done so recently, and may stimulate a wider conversation around a shared passion, if its an inspiring thread. I don't think that means people are being discourteous. And surely preferable to 40 replies telling you 'nice but your top tube is in the wrong place'? (which i don't think it is btw, even if you aren't convinced yourself!).
I was sufficiently inspired that this is the first time I've posted on any forum in many years. Didn't take very long for that balloon to pop then.
@aguycalledsimon. You seem a friendly chap, and thanks for the helpful chat.

We're all friends here unless somebody takes a direct stab at another. Besides, I don't think that I'm the only one who sees each bike on this string of posts very much deserving of their own topic! It almost makes me jealous to see these well bred steeds!
Maverick, C260... Well done! Please post pics when you're done!

@DrJeffers,
Totally fine if it runs slightly off course, as long as it concerns the built why not
That aside, should you have concerns regarding what sort of frame size is best suited for you, IMHO it's most appropriate to post a separate thread on it. I'm sure most users here will chime in including myself. Having tried three different sizing (and sold two as a result), I would love to share some of my thoughts.
kulcha,
All is cool, no problem, nice built by the way.
(though I think a 48s may fit you better due to the super long stem + saddle pushed all to the rear on your current built )
Btw, what's the weight?
Cheers!

Wow so nice. Your threads always deliver, maverick_1
May I ask, does the headtube area look bronze in daylight? Its so hard to find decent outdoors shots of these frames, ie like this

If it's not too much trouble would you mind adding a few outdoors close ups?

@Tinea,
Lol!!
@Ross,
Sure, will get it done when the sun is up. It'll be nothing but rain today so probably tomorrow?
And yes, it looks a little bronze, definitely not black IMHO.
Cheers!

My god, I've seen the black version in the flesh but that white one is really stunning... I'd have a very difficult time choosing between the two if I were ever to lighten my wallet on one.
