Current Projects chat and miscellany

Pretty much brand new but has one paint chip, incorrect front QR skewer, missing an aero cover from the brake hood, and the front pointy screw from the brake center bolt. Small things really.

Payday shopping

Staff discount ennit. I can remove it from the basket quickly as it only needs the 2 straps, fits the medium Wald perfectly, but the 2 straps are not enough with the rack to stop it sliding, you'd need some bungees, but you can ziptie the base to the rack quite securely

pornworthy

I trust you have period-correct eurohair

Looks like the original tyres - they should be softened nicely by now

Went through at least a dozen of different concepts, I guess that's the final one.
Rotor cranks ordered. Just missing the handlebars and bar tape.
Two to three weeks to finalise the project, hopefully.

Gonna get the kit but unsure on the hair! Those 22mm tyres are riding surprisingly nicely actually even over cobbles.

I can imagine - old tubs are so smooth.

Nice sunny ride to work this morning!

Was it you who had the cromor (?) version up for sale a while back? It pained me to pass up that!

Another MBK? Don't believe it was me. There was the CX version of this frame for sale on PF.com maybe 6 months ago which I missed out on sadly :( That was lovely too.

I want it for my Pizza rack, but I'd need it to clip securely on there without the need for bungees and be easily removable so I can take it up to my floor to shower/change at work.

When my pouches arrive I'll take a look at them and see how good they are. Maybe he'd make me a bag with more clips to stop it sliding.

Enjoy your fancy groceries.

He's able to customise all of his products! Just drop him an email :)

You painting that yourself?

Got a friend who is a framebuilder and also paints frames.

Finished this project last week: Zeus pista with full Zeus group. Went all-in with zeus cog, seatpost binder bolt, barplugs, ... Happy with the result.

A real beauty, slack for track though.

Almost ready for 9 days touring in Sardinia

Very jealous, Sardinia is a beautiful island.

Is that saddle going to be comfortable enough for 9 day's touring? I had a droopy Flite once and the seatpost started poking me up the bum through the bottom of the saddle.

Very jealous - as Tom has said it's ruggedly beautiful if you haven't been before. Hope those bags are filled with sun cream, enjoy!

It doesn't have any handles to carry it off the bike, so it's pretty awkward to carry, but you could just put a bag or backpack inside of it, keeps your bag dry to
