PhilDAS learns to glue (mostly) metal

I’ve still got some Colombus tusk forks for cheap they are straight blade

Send us a picture mate. How much will you let them go for? Carbon or alloy steerer?

I think I still have some direct mount shiv forks with a 1 1/8th straight steerer. Is it too late to turn this into dbad? Theyre black.

Yes it is too late. I'm happy with regular brakes for now.
You don't fancy a frame with direct mount brakes under the chainstays though do you? I could do that

I should probably shift those forks instead of making a bike around them. Road riding aint my cup of tea really

I have hydro mountain brakes, 700c disc wheels, an 8 speed mtb groupset and some aerobars. Monster-TT-MTB?

8 speed? Did you inherit that from a grandparent?

If you're gonna do it just put them in the right place, Shimano sells dm seatstay brakes these days

Nah, Form > Function

Cheapest groupset to buy into when I was building up a Ribble about 4 years ago. Now I'm stuck with it because nobody wants 8spd. Works well though haha

Carbon I think , with plenty of steerer Will check tonight . £40 posted ?

How’s number 2 coming along?

Your a number 2

Still waiting on Peter "Ceeway" to get back off his holiday so he can gimme some tubes.

The cheek of some people, having holidays.

WHY THE HELL ARE PEOPLE TAKING HOLIDAYS!

NOT ON MY WATCH!

Does that mean if you build enough bikes for people here, we can have a Sausage party?

Much excite

Woohoo!

What are the plans for cable routing?

Shitty function looks shit too

Phil wanna build me a fixie skidder?

Still deciding but as clean as possible so internal where I can. All outer to the rear brake so can be cable or hydro.
Will need a solution for the bottom bracket area, might have to come back out and over or under before going back internal.

Yes.

Hmm, yes that's what I was thinking too. I think @Jaap has the neatest solution I've found so far: https://www.lfgss.com/comments/14122829/

I don’t want to give too much away but I have a couple ideas along those lines
