This website is as dodgy as it looks isnt it?

cheapbikeparts360, no shit.

Thought as much. Somebody want to sell me a rear 7710, 32H and double fixed? Preferably on its own but I could consider a full wheel

DSC08031

Just had this Lee Cooper built lo pro delivered.

Plan is to build it with ultegra brifters on the end of some bullhorns. Has anyone found bullhorns which are well shaped for that?

Nice frame! Keep us updated:)

Seems a bit pointless, but if you absolutely must then chop and flop would be most appropriate. Cinelli Tempo should work, so would Deda Akros. On the other hand, you could just do the right thing and get some downtube levers.

45c on a 99cm wheelbase - basically a 56 Supersix with monster tyres - chapeau @Hulsroy

Yeah, guess you're right. Was just that I found an ultegra groupset with brifters on eBay for cheap. Got to wait for a few more bits so may as well have a look for downtube shifters too.

Close ups of the aero thing please for aero/gussets etc. thread plz

I'm thinking about "upgrading" my mid 90s Eddy Merckx Corsa Extra Team Telekom with some Downtube-Shifters. Now it has a Shimano 600er 2x8speed with STIs but im thinking about upgrading to 2x10 with Dura Ace Downtubeshifter. Yay or nay?! I like the classy look with Aerolevers and downtubeshifter.

In progress

Bar tape is RAD!

Only got my phone camera I'm afraid:

Cheers! Done a quick parts bin mock up for now and will do a build thread when I'm a bit further down the line.

Anyone know what this braze on is for?

Yup, chain hanger for when you take the wheel out the frame.

Cheers m'dears.

Been told it's a mix of Max and some reynolds tubing.
Can't wait to get it on the road!
