'My little despot balance bike' - Talbot Frameworks

No. More. Resprays.

I concur.

Wow.

Boring out the centre of the bar for the lugs. Without 'boring' (BANTZ) you with numbers it's greater than an interference fit due to the process I use to bond carbon and steel.

This is awesome. Best thread I have found on here so far.

You've not seen the free world build yet then...

£100 Frozen BSO to be honest.

That's all she wants - your custom made jobbie just won't get the depth of appreciation/kudos that a genuine halfords peer group shit branded bike would carry - accept that..

I'm in awe of your dedication to detail. I'd be all 304 ERW tube and Coke can shims.

so true.

@andyp just reliving this. Pink with rainbow sparkles is what has been demanded. You win.

I think we both lose, Matt.

I keep telling myself better pink and purple and princess shit now, at 4, than later at >13.

It had better have unicorns shitting rainbows somewhere on it

Yeah I think it's worth getting it over and done with. Real work complete for the day, so back to this nonsense. Am making some headway with the forks.

'Boost' spacing eh..

baby boost....new standard

Cool, frame builders love new standards.

Angle makes it look slightly more monstrous than real life. Not much though. Wheels fits. Going to smear them in cancer glue and leave to set, probably for 8 weeks it is so cold in the workshop. I do love a new standard it's true @BareNecessities!
