  • Why don't you start the tape where yours ends and then tuck in plugs -much neater and you won't push the edges with tight fitting tape like benotto and no ugly sticky tape at end.

  • @Heldring

    ^^^ no can do. Will be changing the dropouts to vertical ones and then using a magic gear.

    @Ptown

    ^^ thanks. Hope I do it justice. Will take some photos of what its like now.

    @Si46

    ^ I wish that was mine. Its just the best colour combo with pink bennotto tape ever IMO. Would be good to get those colours in. Sadly to the fillet brazing there is no headtube panel so can't copy it entirely.

  • Is that a dent in the the top tube in pic no. 6 and 7 or just a small paint repair?

  • yeah, small enough to ignore.
    Always hard to take photos of.

  • not-sure-if-trolling.jpg

  • Doesn't reflect well on me.
    I was, hope that you were to.

  • Didn't Update this for a while but I did goof around with some halfrauds spray paint. It came out OK I think, a lot (loads) of mistakes if you were to look closely but its not too bad IMO.

    It now looks like this. I have started accumulating nice parts (the bars and stem {Cinelli LA84 and Cinelli 1R}) and they are on in the latest version. The front wheel really should be 700c but the only spare front wheel I had was this Mavic 650c wheel bought for the original frame on this thread. Apologies for the shite rear wheel but it is what I had going spare. The seat post and seat is borrowed of my Kalavinka so I will have to find something similar because I quite liked the look of it, though I did plan on getting a aero campag seat post.
    I did have risers on this before and the twitchiness scared me.
    Worth pointing out that this isn't meant to be anywhere near finished, I am yet to try out the blue and purple/pink paintjobz I was planning on trying/actually keeping.

  • I rather like that spray painting - it is creative and neat.

  • I can clearly see where the inspiration came from ;)
    Well done! Now matching rear rim pls!!!

  • Nice work on the paint! Looks good

  • ^^^
    Thanks, though creative not so sure (↓).

    ^^
    I have no idea what you mean
    Sadly couldn't find any neon yellow/green like yours at halfrauds.

    I even bagged a set of the acrobats way back to essentially copy your cockpit. Sadly on this the colours are off.

    Matching rear would be nice but pricey.

    ^
    Thanks, you would be able to see quite a few mistakes if I was any good at photographing it.
