Hulsroy's Hustle

Principia?

Vision Crosstrail

I have those pink Frogglegs

What Jesper said. If the geometry works out for me I have plans for getting it painted and reworking the Vision branding

I need some rowdy bar tape. I used to own some Ciclolinea Graphic Cycle Tape in white and black. Can't find it anywhere online.

This stuff, not black n white, but rowdy still.

I’ve got some of this in pink NOS if you want for postage

Nice. I found some Bontrager ZagZig that is very similar.

Sounds dope. Thanks I would like that

Comfy but graphics wear so quick :(

I don't get to ride much these days so it will be fine :)

Cool bike!

Bikes in general are quite mainstream don’t you think? So are a lot of nice things. Babies. Dancing. Ice cream.

I get that you might not have the time now since becoming a father. But yeah. Go go frame builders I say.

I am kidding. I'll never stop. I just fancied this one and it was cheap

Good to hear :-) your craft is impressing!

Thanks dude.
My wife and I just a got a flat 200m away from my workshop. So if the rental contract and everything else goes through smoothly I should be having a lot more workshop time from mid October.

Sweet! Being 15 months into parenthood myself I know how that could make a big difference.

Best news today (partly from the selfish reason that I really like the action in this thread)!

Thanks dude <3

I get frustratingly little time to tinker these days. When I do I stress and try and do everything quickly. This means the results are not up to my standards. So instead of getting frustrated and fuck shit up I have decided to spend my workshop time cleaning up. Today was first stab at it.

There is still loads to do. But once I have organised everything upstairs for storage I can start tidying up downstairs and make it less crowded. This should improve the framebuilding quality and make my life easier.

Obviously I would not go to my workshop without doing something bike related.

So I fitted this Hope headset to my new cross frame. I can't believe it worked.
Frame is originally for semi integrated headset.
Headset lower cup stack height has changed very little meaning less than an angle degree difference.

What was the argument against using the green one that came with the frame?

Besides this being purple and a bit sexier

That I wanted to use my tapered enve forks.
The other 1 1/8" forks will go on the specialized that will go to my mate Bjørn
