Awesome, I'll start asking around when I get it. I was very close to buying a copy of a troll from China but import and shipping fees were the same as the bike so sacked it. Its a funny world really, so many people think new is better but an old steel bike could be reborn into a modern copy for a fraction of the cost and whilst supporting a local frame builder and saving it from a land fill. Pages and pages of that on this forum are inspiring and even at the Rdvst they are inspiring it.

Nice nice.
Seen plenty of Project2's or similar for not much £££ on ebay (seems like loooads of them).
My forks are in with Stayer (Leyton) at the moment getting mid-fork eyes brazed on. Was surprised how cheap it worked out actually. Worked out loads cheaper than I found half decent forks w/eyelets for.
