It is going a bit slow in Hulsroy world.
I am running a bit short on time. I've been doing a lot of stuff around the flat and some furniture bits and bobs, but I am picking up my mates forks and rack and my wife's Kona Cinder Cone frameset tomorrow. I had it all powder coated matte RAL 6009 for £70. So thats nice. Finish is probably less so ;)
I'll be building them up Thursday evening I reckon. I am hoping for sunshine during the weekend so I can take some photos of those and my gravel bike which is refreshed with new chainrings, cogs and chain olus the new wheels obviously. I also swapped the rear mech for something shorter to see if I can get better shifting. Something about the track ends, wheel placement and mech hanger is not completely great. It shifts, but not as nicely as my other geared bikes and cables are new etc.
I haven't done much riding on it as it's really wet and muddy outside and my Fixeh winter trainer just makes so much more sense to ride these days.
In terms of framebuilding I am hoping to start testing engraving head tubes this weekend and then when that's dialled onto making a road frame for @JensArne which I am pretty stoked on doing.
I've ordered a pedal for my TIG welded and been making some heat sinks. I'll see if I can get some back purging going as well.
So cool things coming up shortly I hope
