Ecobeard's Projects.

Bloody artisans being squeezed out of London

Making us have to go down to the badlands because they like the 'area's gritty texture'

Forks are done on the singlespeed

Somehow managed to miss 'Intercity 1', it looks ace, where are the magnets? 'Intercity 2' should be fixed.

Still getting used to Matt having a clean & tidy work environment.

Nice frame and fork ! Why the long dropouts and not track ends ?

Mudguards I'd imagine

What @umop3pisdn said

These old school Campag style drop outs let you take a wheel in and out whithout swearing at the mudguards. Track dropouts aree for track frames, I already have a track frame, for track.

To answer @((Ben)) this can be run fixed, however, I very much enjoyed running my Genesis Flyer as a single speed for commuting and hill reps, so I thought I’d the same with this. This won’t be ‘Intercity 2’ either. It’s s much earlier aesthetic than that livery...

This only shows a small area and Caren is away, so god only knows what is actully happening down there

Two Tone Green?

LoL!

The killer of Huskisson

@HelicopterHelicopter is closer....

Going a bit Gresley, but @coldharbour has the ultimate say on paint, there will be some 'period' details though.

Should be something like this. Trains come Postman Pat.

Mail Collection hooks on the frame would be deadly

Someway fashion it to assist in the madison?

A 'postal' madsion may actually be safer in some circumstances.

I wonder if its possible to handsling a train though.....?

OG Flyer frame re-acquired from Sam

Needs a rebuild, could be back on the road pre-Christmas though!

This may change the Talbot Single speed slightly....

Flyer back in commission, albeit with parts bin bits

Nice to have it back, I don't remember 48/18 being this heavy though....

(poor photo I know)

It's the flaps. They're dragging you backwards.

Or the freewheel...

I am waiting for this update.

Flaps do have a specific gravity, its true

just jealous of descending CP Park road

what update?

Been after a few bits for the Flyer recently.

Nearly there I think, before final assembly can commence

I just picked up these cheeky Zipp hubs on eBay with a bit of lowballing

28H so need a good stiff rim I reckon (I mean who doesn’t)
