The Two Bicycles of Varonha.

Bravo!

Scrabble font could look cool in a Rock Lobster kind of a way : )
I might make the squares a bit yellower because pink and yellow always look great together.

rush-job but comme ça:

Lovely,ta. Rhubarb n custard.

I like the scrabble idea. You reckon the pink will work with silver wheels+finishing kit?

Ta. Dunno yet, only one way to find out, if not I have plenty of black stuff in the shed, then I could hunt down some black rims.

Further investigation leads me to believe it will work.

Tip-top.

exactly!

Thanks for the potatoshop work, just gotta find someone to make them now!

At the risk of asking for answers where none are to be found, why did you ditch the mr pink?

Because my friend, I'm a fucking arsehole!

It's ok though, I've got first dibs if it ever goes up for sale again.

I look first to the thread title change if you do buy it back

Think I'll leave the thread title alone, just class it under the " blah blah blah" bit.

With the greatest of respect and admiration for what you have achieved, leaving things alone hasn’t proven to be your strength

But I digress, did you also shift the pauls before using them?

Also the pink with silver looks great. I thought the pink would need black but I was wrong

I am one of life's tinkerers/fettlers, I probably enjoy fucking about with bikes as much as enjoy riding them to a brew n cake shop.
I used one of the Pauls, the front I think, for a couple of days, it was ok, but not massively better than my current brakes.
Honestly I hadn't considered whether it would work with silver until @atk asked, then I remembered KK's Mr Pink from the Radavist, thankfully it looks like it does.

Winston sent some more pics today, nearly ready to go to Aurum tomorrow, a miscommunication/understanding between us meant the forks had an extra pair of eyelets (which are being removed before going to Aurum).
It's looking rather splendid, I think.

Photo skills not on par with his brazing skills ay

Come on Mads, they're fantastic photos, take it from me, my reputation as a great bicycle photographer wasn't earned easily. 😉

I probably enjoy fucking about with bikes as much as enjoy riding them

Amen

It's looking rather splendid

Yep!

Dibs are still in place @jontea !

New bike looks superb, as expected

I'd go for a lighter pink like that amazing bike someone on here had (@superjoe ?) which I can't find a picture of. Or a petrol blue (probably not the right phrase) like @Hulsroy 's favourite Bob Jackson.

But it's not mine... Yet ;)

I did start with a lighter pink in mind, but then I found a On One frame in RAL 4003 (heather violet) that looked amazing, then ended up with 4010 (telemagenta).
If I don't like it, it's not undoable, I'm just having a bit of fun with it.
RAL 6004 blue green (kinda petroly blue) is on the cards for when I have Winston bike 1 done later this year (the clear coat isn't coping with Cheshire winter, too much salt on the roads).

Oh it isn't? Who would have thought...
