right im getting in front of myself here but next week i get me new frame gotta paint it then built the bike up .tips i need are
11/8 hedset never fitte done what do they contain bits wise and how does it all fit and work
giro .how the hell do these fit ind any set up tips
euro bottom bracket again never seen one and havent got clue

next query is should i set up and use gyro as i am nothing near and never willbe at the stage of barspins etc .will brake setup be easier and as good without the giro or better with it on ?
also should i use the hollow bolt thingy to thread cable thru or just take it from lever to brake without going thru forks ?
any input and help would be appreciated as i want to get this ride up and running with minimal probs and hopefully without any teething probs as im not very patient and ive got big hammer handy at all times lol

Greg, I have a Giro and a potts mod on mine, but like you, will not be doing any bar spins for a while, so I am going to take them off and get the feel back into the brakes, as they are a big vague and mushy with all that extra crap fitted. Ad
