  • @Tijs, nah it's for herne hill. I've escaped the wedding band I was playing in, so have more Saturdays free to go to hhv. The fork was cheap on here and has no brake hole, not cool enough for brkls on the street so it'll be track use only.

    @timbre, I've had the frame for ages. Thought it'd be a bit small so gave it (and some other spare bits) to my little brother. He didn't bother building it up so I've nicked it back off him and cobbled it together with all the lfgss bargains I've been hoarding. You still doing hhv by the way?

    @umop3pisdn, the rims are not wide :(

  • I remember you saying!

    Not been doing it as life has been busy / not had the drive too.
    Would like to but also would prefer to go cycle in the real world when I get the opportunity to.

    Get some gumwalls and nice cranks on the pre cursa and it will be a great track bike.

  • Ah that's a shame, but fair enough. What's your track bike now? Still on the Nelson but with new forks? Gonna try to make an effort to get along regularly but we'll see how that pans out. New cranks coming (Stronglight 2000s currently cheap from PX).

    Gonna try a different set of wheels on the fork, as the guy who sold me them reckons he was running 23s with loads of clearance. Also found Vittoria 20c Open Corsa Evo tyres in the PX sale (also yellow/black to match the current tyres). Gumwalls would look good, but will depend on what'll fit in the fork.
