gimme your short v2 sven.
ill love you forever

@swedeee s bike was looks very rad and very functional last night

^deserves posting in rat thread

I'm still debating restoring @edscoble bike back to what it was original before extra brake cable holder etc... got welded on

Go for it if you like, probably better to removed the brake bridge while you're at it to have that OG look.

Cool. Not sure when I'll do it, but at least I'll first start with swapping out the brakes. Will keep all the parts for you

heaviest TT bike in the world

I was going to have @coldharbour do that to mine (remove brake bridge) and then replace it with two thin bits of sheet steel in the style of the brake bridge on @andypancake's Makino albeit slightly closer together like a venetian blind at 45deg. Alas, I have no money to do such a thing just yet.

Have always wondered about the possibility of removing the brake bridge on the v2! It would be fine? Doesn't remove any strength if done properly?

Not something I'm gonna be doing anytime soon but it's pretty much the worst bit of the v2

Doesn't remove any strength if done properly?

It doesn't, it's there to literally run a brake.

Ill get my angle grinder

scobs we need more pics of your v3

^ this

Not yet

Who has first dibs on it? If no one I do

Can you even lift it?

good point; I'll hire someone.

What mugaurds do people use ?

I have a V1 with 35cc Pasela's and was thinking of these to help keep me dry for winter:

A Pompino can keep you dry.

Unless it has brake bridges they won't work

I was thinking of multiple zip ties to manufacture a solution.

What have others used ?
