Yeap, this is a clown bike :D

The bb is super height (30-31cm)

More than two years ago this came out the shed looking a bit old and dusty, all original and a bit sticky.

More than two years of near-daily use in all weathers, a siezed quill stem, a couple sets of wheels, a few sets of tyres, new brake hoods, new front mech, new dt shifters, a couple crashes and drops on wet roads going too fast, half a dozen saddles, and even a quickshift adapter on tri bars.... finally I stripped it and will take it to a bike shop to get the damn bb out.

Out with the old (7 spd rx100), in with the new (-ish 10spd DA/105).

Rear stays didn't need a plank of wood, they stretched easy by hand ...!

That's the smallest triple triangle I've ever seen.

A set of corima's would look ace... Currently on eBay for a manageable price in the future

Yes Deda peiga. Those are the ones which I use on the track bike but I actually have another pair I could use if I want..

Did you win this on ebay not long ago? I really liked it but it wouldn't of fitted, I still nearly bid though as it looks well fun.

It looks to be in better knick that i remember.

Shit! Just seen this! This was my old frame, sold it about 5 years ago. Anyone got any pictures of it built up?

Needs more swept back bars or drops. Can't stand the flatbars. Also the front caliper is hitting the spokes. And the chain is hopping when on the smallest sprockets. Other than that it's pretty fun.
