A bit more progress today, gave some seat guts I had a going over with some Autosol and the Dremel, added the 'Aero' decal to the repop Kashi and took the Gen II EZ's off my Haro, and cleaned them up, I thought they may need to be sent to Dan but they're fine.

Top nut arrived this Morning Rob and is fitted, looks sweet Bro, thanks again very much for stepping in and helping out.  :4_17_5:

So today I sent a nice polished stem off to Dan for some white powder, I know you purists will hark on about how it should be a Skyway stem, but there aint too many about just now and I wanna ride this Mother. :P

I got a hollow stem bolt off Kappy but the hole on an SR is too small so one of the guys in the enginner shop at work, reamed it for me last night so it can go to Dan's today.  :daumenhoch:

I may switch to a Skyway stem in the future, but as a lot of you know, my builds are budget builds and imo an SR is a nice stem to work with, plus I bought this off Wini last year so it was there for the taking. ;)

i've still got some white MKII bars if anyone wants em  ::)  >:(

no probs on the nut Dan, i tested it out on mine before i sent it  :daumenhoch:  i'm only a set of MKI bars and chainring away from sending all my bits off to Dan for some painting  :coolsmiley:   did some work on my old orange tuffs but they're going to need a bit of dye and a new front axle i think.

Then it's just......

Crank + BB + pedals
Levers + cables
Seat post

But i'm in no rush  :daumenhoch:
