^Not getting bmx frame till later in the week so that left today free to tinker with my newest acquisition,
I'd been talking to the mrs about struggling to keep up with geared mates and wanting a 'sensible' bike and she said why don't I buy one, don't need to be told twice so picked this up from Rutland in Peterborough on my way home from Bespoked.
Made a few people at Bespoked headset caps, just builders I already knew their stuff or that I saw on the exhibitor list and liked their stuff. Was a nice way to meet some people, Toby from Toad was especially awesome, nice chat with him and he liked his cap so much he fitted to it one of the bikes on his stand there and then!
Chatted to a guy at Bespoked about silverplating so think I'm gonna give those rings a go. Bit more research to be done first though and chatted to Ted about brazing so I'm going to look into oxy/propane again.
Think I might build a front rack fro the Day One, just something to strap a sleeping bag etc to. I saw a few racks at Bespoked that have given me some ideas...
