    HPV Streetmachine / Grin Build

    Next Installment. A few weeks ago this arrived: I'd placed an order to Grin, via Leftfield Cycles in London. They seemed to stock a lot of Grin parts, more than the other UK agents, but that was purely based on studying websites etc so may not be true. Anyway, Guy Wheeler there was very...

    Introduction and 1st build!

    Morning all, I'm Phil from the north eastern UK, near Durham to be precise! I've followed the field of electric power for years but have finally dived in to my first build. It's a hard tail Genesis Latitude with a mid range Shimano group set and a Rock Shox fork that I already had. I've bought...
