Takhion Temp

Hi guys,

This is my first projects thread so you'll have to bear with me! I've read a lot of others current projects so I figured I should write one for my own project, all be it a strange one.

I bought the frame before Christmas and it sat about looking a bit sorry for its self for quite a while until recently when I decided to build it up as a track bike (shoot me I know!).. It made sense because I was only really a BB and seat post away from getting it rideable and it seemed better than it sitting about waiting for its eventual road build.

The frame was actually new when I got it and came in its original brown paper wrapping. It still had paint in the seat tube an bb threads with no markings from wheels on the dropouts! It hasn't been stored in the most careful way though so has its fair share of scratches like many other Takhions.

I'll update with a full parts list at some point but it should be pretty self explanatory!

Let me know what you guys think! Oh and bear in mind it will eventually get a road build, so no fixie conversion hate please as it'll get the build it deserves in due time :)

Cheers

Excellent, well done with NOS Takhion. Let me know if you need the same track one :)

you'll have to bare with me!

I have to do no such thing, but I'm happy to bear with you if you want to ride naked :-)

Hahaha good spot thanks!

Cheers guys :)

I like that my old wheel went on something nice! Looking forward to seeing in full roadie mode :-)

Thanks! This is a 700 front actually ;-).. I've got other plans for your wheel but that'll be a while off, seem to have too many projects on the go

Wow, nice!

Dear God...

Could you send me the numbers on the left drop out which indicates year of production and number of the frame in DM ?I'm gathering info about all Takhion frames possible.This one has 26.2mm seatpost diameter right ?

I want photos just in case .thanks

Consider selling the Takhion frameset?
Or anyone have for sale? buying one within next 3 days!
... already found someone, just wanting options to choose from.

This is AERO model, isn't it?
