Assembled it today.

Very nice. So how do you like it? How does it feel compared to the imperial?

 

[Changleen]

Nice componentry choices. I love that you've got the rear wheel tucked all the way in there too! Sorry but silver doesn't look as good as blue tho... It's still an awesome frame - It just looks so 'right'.

 

[Cuprinol]

Thx alot!

Only ridden it for a few hours, but it feels more "regular" than the Imperial. More easy going. I´ll have to get back to you when I´ve ridden som more.

[Cuprinol]

Thx Mr Tiles.

I´ve just changed tyres to Hutchinsson Spider´s

sweetness x10.

c'mon, tell us how it feels compared the imp.

 

[Cuprinol]

Feels much more elegant (corney but true). Not so over the top beefy, but it should defenantly be beefy enough for any hardcore streeter

I´ve increased the wheelbase somewhat and now it feel even better. Neutral enough for ordinary trail ripping and lively enough for urban play. Getting a bit tired now, stay tuned for more bs from yours truly...

 

[ufdff15]

how long are your stays? I have mine at 16" in the front dropout.

 

[Cuprinol]

Haven´t really measured, but I´ve got it centered and using the rear dropout.

 

[ufdff15]

your probably around 16.5" than. My drops are pretty much centered to.

 

[Cuprinol]

Gotta tell you that your Sovereign looks pretty darn fresh with the jumper and SS on there

Some new pics for ya, this time I´ve changed the tyres, and removed the gears... a new fork is to be bought and some other stuff. In the meantime:
