Beautiful!! Great proportions on your build. How are you getting on with the hubs? Tempted by them for an upcoming build.

Very nice and clean build. I had previously looked at the Gosforth frames and it was on the shortlist. Dan was really helpful in providing addition geometry info for me, unfortunately they were out of stock in my size.

Ended up with a Genesis 931 instead.

I can't really offer an informed opinion, as I collected the wheels at the weekend, and have taken them on one 68 mile ride. I think over a certain price point, a hub is a hub! They're not the lightest, but they are beautifully made and have a titanium freehub. I'm sure you can find plenty of longer-term reviews on here and elsewhere.

Regarding the White industries T11 hubs I've been really happy with mine and have used them for over 6 years now and have only just changed all the bearings which was straight forward enough.
