Rad! Bags are cool, what are they?

Lerouquinquiroule on insta for the bag

Picked up this ratty 1989 Spesh a few days ago... news bars, wheels, stem, tyres and brakes. Stupid fun.

What hubs are those?

I guess I'll do one with more of my projects, when I find some time. Will include this one with the pictures I have :)

Picked up this Bianchi Specialissima Sante frameset last week looking alittle worse for wear!, loads of t-cut, polish and wax later with a Campag Triomphe group I’ve had laying around its starting to look alright perfect for rolling along the seafront chip run once the final bits arrive.

Very nice!

Does anyone do a red anodised headset that's decent and not mega spenny?

Dia compe cb-2?

Or just go for something cheap (and maybe cheerful?) off ebay

Superstar components. UK made too.

Narrow your criteria by stating interface dimensions

Very nice, if that Aarn's a 49t and you fancy doing a PX with a silver S75 ring let me know.

That's looking lovely.

1 1/8 EC34, should have said!

They look good, they're out of red in the size I need though! That Dia Compe might be worth a punt.

First ever road bike - slightly stupid 1x8 on a 600 tricolor but so much fun... also have to get used to riding drop bars again

Parts bin build I put together yesterday. Quite fun to ride, might put some bmx bars on it just to make it a bit more stupid.

It's a 53 but cheers for the offer

Rad. Love it

Chucked some nice wheels on this curious chip race 325 frame. Might even start riding it again!

need a cheap new frameset - looking at pre cursa 58cm or a blb viper XL (58)

Have previously owned a Dolan, 2015 ish(?) so the 6050 alu, and rough welds etc. and other than the long reach, I enjoyed it and found it versatile.

Considering the viper for the tapered head tube and shorter reach.

I know BLB aren't popular around here, but any pro's / con's? have measured my bb - centre to saddle rails, the viper you be just right un-cut, will it look odd?

fixed beers team ride them so maybe half decent?

blb viper

Sounds like you're trying to convince yourself that the BLB is the choice. Hard to see why when the Dolan is £100 less, and will sell for more when you need to move it on.
