Hay guys, this is my new Orange Kandy project, heres a bit of a run down:

Orange 222 frame, Painted in Kandy orange with metallic fleck. I have replaced the bearings and all bolts with stainless bolts and Hi Tensile steel bolts, and the rear through axel has been re machined. Has ea70 carbon seat post with BBB seat.

At the moment it has a new Hope headset (cups have been pushed in), picked up the wheelset a few days ago, Mavic 721 rims on hope hubs with matching DT swiss spokes. Ultegra 11-21t rear cassette.

Ill have some updated pics soon with the XT cranks and E-13 LG-1.

Thanks fellas, I'am planning to order some Rockshox boxxer teams next week with bars and stem, not gonna let too much out but the build will be hovering around 16.5kg mark, not bad for a full coil bike. And I think its and 02 model orange 222 however not sure.

That definitely is a 01 or 02 222 frame you`ve got there!
I`m rebuilding Two ATM in my workshop of the same vintage, both with new paint job`s. AND, might I add, not a CRACK in sight!
These were tough puppies!:)
