<p>Hi Geoff,</p>
<p></p>
<p>In all honesty, it's simply a case of using what I had laying around. Would probably spec steel BB if I'd bought new.</p>

Beauty! And a healthy saddle to bar drop.<br />
<br />
Curious...everything I've read says ceramic bearings chip more easily when run offroad. For example, pro riders on Paris-Roubaix don't ride ceramic.<br />

Why did you choose ceramic for a 'cross bike?

<p>Looks good - gore sealed shift cables are like a secret weapon for CX. If you see someone running them, you know they know what they're doing. Looks like a lot of drop for a CX rig--you might be able to give Ryan Trebon a run for his money.</p>
