Finally!  Frame arrived today (5-7 days delivery. Yeah, right).

Looks good - welds are tidy, came with all the screws and cable guides I need - weighs exactly 4lbs, which is about right I guess. Seems to be plenty of adjustment on the dropouts. The head tube isn't perfectly round - the reaming has only cleaned up about 95% of the ID at both ends - I don't think it's a problem. The pump peg isn't parallel to the TT either - it's parallel to the ground, which is a little annoying. Should be able to get the fork and wheels on later to see if the geometry is right.

Done.  Not the ideal first ride (75 damp hilly-ish miles) but everything worked nicely enough.  Only needed to tweak the saddle position once, but I do reckon that the handlebars are either a little low or a little too far away.  More experimentation needed.  The ride is really good - stable and comfortable - and the build went well too.  Weighs 23.3 lbs with lights, guards and pump. :thumbsup:
