Some of you may know that The Lengster was robbed nearly two weeks ago and this made me sad. What made me even more sadder, was that I am now unable to attend Tour De Radskids™ with my buddies ltc and co.
What better way to cheer myself up then, than by starting a new project?
Found this frame by chance on the bay for what I consider a good price. Seen a few Mr Weigh's knocking around these parts so thought it was worth a punt. It was initially meant to be a geared winter trainer but now with the Langster gone I need my fixie fix.
This will be my fourth ground up build but I still don't have a clue where to start... Any suggestions? The plan is for all black everything but I want to try and keep costs down so may start a wanted thread at the beginning of next month.
Also any advice on finding information on the frame? The forks have Reynolds written on them although I'm really not sure which tubing specifically... I swear I could make out Campagnolo on the droupouts too but perhaps I'm just being hopeful. I would guess 531?
