A quick explaination of the check lists coming with the frames.
You may have seen some initials that aren't MM or CH on there and wondered whether we actually subcontracted out these frames to Asia and were spinning you a yarn about building them ourselves while actually we were just doing coke and watching Jeremy Kyle. FIrstly, there is time in the day to do both things. Secondly, the initials are of Tom and Noah, who work with Talbot and Hartley respectively, and were the ones who did the checks, not the work. The frames were all welded by me, painted by Caren. Tom and Noah had the pleasure of doing the crap jobs we don't want to do, like braze ons, polishing, reaming etc.... which is what they do at Talbot and Hartley as well.
