  • Lovely. I particularly like the prop stick detail and clingy on plant.

    Is that a carradice Nelson? I'm considering getting one for my cross check.

    Also, any reason for having the rear wheel at the front of the rear drop out? I don't have the little screws for mine so I'm currently placing the rear wheel against the back of the drop outs (I'm used to vertical so this is a new thing for me to think about).

  • Thanks for the kind words. I think the plant is still on there currently!!

    Its a Carradice barley! Great bag and a good size - not too big. I got it when I visited the factory.

    I have the rear wheel like that for ease of removal. It acts like a normal vertical dropout. I feel the horizontal parts are only necessary for SS/Internal hub gear builds.

  • Right, thanks. I need to investigate the Carradice range some more; I think I may still have the one I bought decades ago but not sure where it is.

    See what you mean about wheel removal. I will invest in those little screws for mine.
