Mrs M_V caught me looking at the Ceeway site the other day and asked if I was thinking about doing another frame, thought I was in for it but she said it was good that I was wanting to practice so much and she didn't even seem to mind when I told her that I wanted to spend a bit more on materials this time so I've ordered up everything (hopefully) that I'll need for frame no3 and also bought a lovely Columbus Minimal fork from @marxist_vulcan.
My plan for this one is a nice, classy lugged road fixed.
I've gone for 31.8mm top and down tubes, a 28.6mm seat tube so I'm going to need to sleeve that up to fit the seat lug.
Nothing too fancy on the lugs, I'll use the sleeving on the seat tube to add some ornamentation and might do something similar on the top/down tubes so want to keep it minimalist to start with.
It'll be almost all Zona, chainstays will be short taper Life as there aren't Zona stays that fit the oval ports on the bb lug.
I had thought about doing some discreet mudguard mounts on the frame but as there's no guard mounts on the fork I'll just keep the frame nice and clean.
Oh and I'll be doing a wishbone seat stay.
