…you may remember [THIS](http://www.fixed.org.au/forums/showthread.php?t=36586) thread
I got a bike from Bradford (Seven builder) to match the Road bike he built me last year ([LINK](http://www.fixed.org.au/forums/showthread.php?t=35854&highlight=brad))
I told him to have fun with the build and so he tried a couple of new things. Wishbonesque stay, full housed cable for potential future hydro.
The riding around here is amazing for mixed-terrain stuff. We have woods, single track, gravel, rooty, rocky, muddy.
Have done a 100km mixed ride already, have a 135km over-nighter coming up and then a couple of 160km rides that I’m working towards.
Usually they’re about 50% road, 50% off-road.
If anyone ends up in the northeast it’s by far the best way to ride.
Tubing - Mostly True Temper OX with Paragon Dropouts
Fork - WoundUP CX
Wheels - HED Belgiums to DT Swiss 350
Seat post & Stem - Thomson
Bars - Salsa Cowbell 3
Headset - Chris King
Group - SRAM Rival 1 with Force 1 RD
Brakes - TRP Spyre Mech
Saddle - Brooks Cambium C17

I think that was all covered in Jimmy’s “what should I do with my bike” thread.
Looks ace, would ride (if trimmed to my size).
