#6: Cyclocross Bike Built

So, in anticipation of the coming cyclocross season, I ordered a no-name frame from the Internet and built a cyclocross bike with some spare parts I had laying around, including an Ultegra build kit and DT Swiss / Chris King wheels. By "no name" I mean made by Kinesis, which makes more bicycle frames than you would suspect. I spent all of yesterday evening completing the build, and took it for a test ride. I forgot how finicky cantilever brakes are to install.

So, here it is: #6.
