Talbot Fixed Tourer

Jean Paul Belmondo's car in L'Homme de Rio (rose avec des etoiles vertes)

From what I hear the Pretorius bunch dominated quite a few London races this year.

et les roues roses aussi. regard fort (?).

(I don't know if that movie is available with sub titles, but I recommend it highly) sorry for the OT comment...

Hadn't seen your caad10 thread, nice!

Ouch.

pink to orange serotta with green writing is excellent.

rep

Anymore pics? Given how fast Talbot build, I assume you have got a few hundred miles on this already...

Anymore pics?

...or new developments?

Fork has been sent off for rack/mudguard mounts to be added, when thats done then whole thing has to be sent to bristol for hoops to work his paint magic, will be a little while longer...

hoops doing those for seriously now?

for seriously.

Huh, learnt something new everyday.

Great paintjob on that Mercian pink/white fade. Any shots of the whole frame?

Look what I just found:

It was discussed in the other topic that the fork mount is for the mudguard, so a low rider might not be a good idea (too low as well).

Fair enough

I'm not planning to use the a lowrider, and since matt's just told me that my modified fork looks to be lost by parelforce it might be a good shout....

Perfect!

Just so you know, I found out that the mudguard mount is underneath the fork crown, for that NAHBS wankery cleaniness.

@laner

Where were you having the carbon mods done? I guess you can't attest to their quality of work.

have to ask @Dammit about that, they were the only ones who offered a warranty at the time i think, which seeing what can possibly happen on his time machine is a very good thing

Need dat fork for my Tarski

London Carbon Repairs - I think the chap is on here. Username begins with a V I think.

The work has a good reputation and he gives a years warranty on his work - Ryan is intending on giving him my Time Machine fork to repair/redo.

I popped into Evans and had a look at the Arkose fork, they look ok - I'd assume* that Evans have QC'd them pretty thoroughly, also.

*yes yes.

Still nothing from parcelforce, so highly likely i'll go for the Arkose fork.
Any advice on what front racks will work with this mid-fork mounting? Ideally smallest possible that can still fit a tiny pannier if required @edscoble @spotter
