I was really intrigued by the idea of making bikes, so I read until my eyes hurt, and saved some money and took a frame building class. After completing my first build I was hooked and have been since.

The cranks are 7410 which have a the narrowest q-factor of any modern road crank and the brakes are 7403. These were right before 7700.

thats pretty impressing, you always got to chase your dreams. and you was right : your group is actually the 7410´s, which look a bit like the 7700´s but much more mordern than the 7400
