Graham Weigh Track - Made by Paul Dohonue - Another Tiny Yellow Track Bike

New stem will be lovely, I reckon lugless/internally lugged max forks would be great on this.

Yep was thinking about those too :)

The Pendle is so lovely. I know it didn't fit you but it was a very nice build :)

XTR seatpost out of stock, ballix, the joy of small shops that don't do regular stock checks.

If you see a 27.0 shimano njs or XTR around £70 total let me know... ^_^

Long enough for you?

Cool that may work.

8pilgrim8 has some too.

Biekupdate, ITM eclypse and a Kalloy sorta DA copy.

So now need to get the new fork in (for that extra toe overlap...hah) and get a DA post (feeling tight atm and no cheap ones in good nick)

I think all this needs is a black chain and the colour co-ordination balance would be spot on.

Good point hasn't thought of that :)

Guess a kmc will do?

i think black brake levers would look better.. or something more modern looking at least. sram s500 or cane creek maybe? love it otherwise!

Tx ^_^

Yeah toying with that idea too, CC has short reach levers. Or I can use Tektro Junior as my hands are that small...

Lever on drive side appears to have a longer reach than the left. Pop the little quick reach adjust button the other way to bring it in.

Tx I'll check tonight.

Sugino 75 carbon brake levers on ebay. Sorta tempted...but reach may be too long.

Tiny frame size with matching tiny handsize ;)

Sugino 75 carbon brake levers on ebay.

you know what to do....!

You have to get them, I got a pair and they great. Im sure your hands are not that small

Ok let's hope they stay affordable :)

Tried black tektro juniors too small maybe my hands aren't THAT small :p

Blast missed out on the Sugino...but there's a carbon pair of Campagnolo Records on atm so...

Any ideas for nice tape? I tend to fling on cork tape from Cinelli, it's cheap and cheerful. But as I have to retape anyway, perhaps there's a pretty and comfy tape?

probably too much of a muchness

Splash tape...that's a bit like Marmite no? ;)

I'm not sure it may be too busy with the brake levers on as well, it looked like so with splash tape on when I got the frame and bits: https://lfgss.microcosm.app/api/v1/files/3e2a46b80db25c62e078d1705ba573d398473a2e.JPG

show-off taping: white black yellow

Cloth is very hard though...I don't think you can do this with cork tape :/

https://twitter.com/supacaz/status/560171453753356288 is maybe an option, black on the tops and yellow in the drops :)

Then a yellow saddle to top off the madness :p

OK so TRP carbon levers and black/yellow supacaz mockup. The risk is of course the yellows clash... so not sure :/
There's a little orange in the Weigh yellow it's not as lemon yellow as a lot of bar tapes.

Which SMP? GF needs a new saddle.

It will loose it's brightness after a good few rides tbh. Mock up looks good though but I'm annoyed you missed the sugino 75 levers :-(

Also look up the Izumi 1/2 black gold track chain. Could match the bumble bee steez

It's a lite209.

The sizing is a touch strange I had a 155 spez...lite209 fits most women. But I need a pro it seems.
