Your example doesn't look at all like mine. I checked the QBP catalog, and it is still listed under the Deda section in their bar wrap collection. It is listed as "Jaguar Green" and QBP's part # is HT5816 Hope that helps! :) @Velosopher: Thanks for the compliments. :)

Love to know where you got that terrific green bar tape -- been looking at Deda tape online, and closest I can find is the green here: http://www.excelsports.com/main.asp?page=8&description=Handlebar+Tape&vendorCode=DEDA&major=1&minor=32 But that looks much lighter than your green. Any hints? Classy build!

Racing ralph’s 2.4 do fit but it’s very tricky in the rear and very little clearance. I switched to maxxis ardent 2.25. Here is my setup with the new wtb dropbar. Not really confident with it, reach is too long, and thinking of switching it for an on-one Midge. http://www.flickr.com/photos/28816347@N07/sets/72157622772600973/ have fun with it. Nice Build!

I hung with them just fine on the Gryphon. I had to spin fast with a 36 being my highest front crank but not a big thing. The Gryphon does well in all the different configurations of wheels, 2.1, 700/45 knobbies and 700/47 road tires. The road tires on the Gryphon would be much like I expect the from the Vaya. The Gryphon really turns on a dime and accelerates through corners as well as a road bike. I am liking the ride. I put some conti 47′s on and took a ride with some roadies today.
