Sorry for the delay. Quick update. I took the frame into Bikefix on Lamb's Conduit Street, who did a beautiful job in rebuilding the joint, and I've been riding it happily for the past few weeks. However all that rebrazing has had a less than ideal effect on my lovely Halfords rattle can paint job, so last weekend I dismantled the whole thing again (i'm becoming an expert in stripping moulton frames) and took it down to the chaps at Armourtex. It's getting a black sparkle coat, and the racks are being coated gloss white. Then this weekend I'll be rebuilding it, with a new 60/13 (!) gear ratio so it is fast enough to keep up with the Dunwich dynamo in a couple of weeks time... Photos to follow...
