PoorBehavior: Nice Jab! Are they On-One Fleegle bars?
Thanks, and yeah they are fleagle's. I have some Mary's I am going to give a shot as well.
Well, that is as soon as Uncle Sam lets me loose for a while.
My bike will be finished up tomorrow and I'm going to FLY back home to try and pick it up before the shop closes tomorrow. If I'm successful pics will be up tomorrow, if not friday morning.
Most of the parts are taken from my old ride which was 2005 rig, ridden only from the last year. I've upgraded the cockpit with new shorter stem from kcnc and with monkeylite handlebar. My legs are relatively long so i had to get a 500mm post for me.
I feel like that more or less every bike has too much standover for me or are just too low. Maybe next one will look a bit better and I get to shave off some grams from seatpost.
With a little weightweenie in me I really can't weight it or else I would get the obsession to get it under 10kg mark. It's pretty much stock Rig2005 so its not that light or bling, just the best bike i've owned so far.
Here is a bad angle pic of my Jabber. I put the Vassago fork back on it the other day and I must say it is a really nice steel, especially for the money. I will try to post a pic of the current build later today.
Some parts I kinda threw on there and will be upgraded soon. Im loving Vassago fork offset! Goodbye toe overlap!

Looks like you are using ENO cranks, did you have problems with the torque on the driveside crank bolt? Im using 68x113 shimano un26 and the lockring rubs with the BB cup stalling the entire crank. Should I be using a longer spindle? WI suggested a 68x113.

I have run a 113mm BB with my ENO's on a Jabberwocky and the cranks lock ring never came close to rubbing the fixed cup of my BB.
Are you SURE your's is a 113mm???
Oh me oh my, I showed the bb to my LBS and the axle is offcentered! The spindle is recessed on the driveside by at least 5 mm. Can't believe i didnt notice. It's 113 mm but clearly more spindle is showing on the nondrive side. Defect! No more UN26's for me!

Cap. Bob - Could you tell a big difference between the carbon fork and the steel fork? Nice build, BTW.
