Everyone wrote:Bit of an aside but have you spent much time on the mack hubs? I'm tempted to get a set for my xc bike and I was wondering what people thought about them.
I'm not sure if it's still the same case now, but the older hubs used slightly modified Novatec freehubs IIRC. This is actually quite a good thing IMO. It means spare parts should be easy to find and the design has been pretty well proven on thousands of OEM wheels.

Hello everyone,
I am still waiting for the frame to be finished and returned. As soon as I get it back I will post some updates. In the mean time, I am thinking about sanding off the logos on the THM Scapula F fork. The silver logos wont match this build.
Thanks!

I was able to gather some parts that I had sitting around in the garage to do a drop bar (standard road bar) configuration. I plan on using the straight bar set up, but wanted to see how a standard set up will look and weigh. The weights and specs are as follows:
SRAM S900 BRAKE LEVERS
BTP CARBON HOODS
BTP CLAMPS

A CLOSER LOOK AT THE TITANIUM PARAGON HORIZONTAL DROPOUTS INSTALLED. I AM VERY PLEASED WITH THE WORK. IT LOOKS FACTORY QUALITY AND SUPER CLEAN:)

HERE IS A BETTER LOOK AT THE HEAD TUBE LOGO. KIND OF HARD TO SEE BUT THAT IS EXACTLY HOW I WANTED IT. I LIKE TO SEE ALL THE CARBON UNDERNEATH THE CLEAR COAT. I COULD NOT BE ANY HAPPIER.

HERE IS THE IMPORTANT PART.....THE WEIGHT. 782 GRAMS IS NOT AT ALL THAT BAD FOR A 2007 FRAME WITH AN INTEGRATED SEAT POST AND TITANIUM TRACK DROP OUTS.
