  • ok i know in the picture it doesnt have seatsays but i promise i did do them i just dont have any pics

  • and made reasonable progress on the road frame, with much less nice pics. Its now mostly welded together and just needs seatstays/bridges/brazeons

  • at some point soonish will finish it off. Getting the cx frame and a few other bits back from paint tomorow so will do it after ive put that back together

  • well ive had a very unproductive few months. i got a full time job then it was shit and had a sad few months. Then got another job, which is actually quite good but still much less time to do stuff than when i was mostly unemployed before, as i was at uni for the last few years. However i did finish both the track frame and road frame. Im extremely happy with the road frame. I haven't ridden it that much as its been winter but i went to spain last week and did like 25hrs on it and it felt great. rly just so nice. got some pics of it with the shallow alloy wheels and carbon wheels. Both feel nice in their own way

  • I like the coloured spacers! Bike looks amazing overall - great job

  • Those bikes are awesome

    +1 for the colour spacers. Looks good

  • I am becoming a big fan of your work.
    ... And I like your coloured spacers as well. ;)

  • Another steel stem potential customer here.

    Seen some horrifically brazed ones getting high praise on here - yours look much cleaner

  • So nice !

  • Lovely road bike, really like the proportions and design choices you did

  • Would someone on here be willing to remove and fit another canti lug onto my 531 forks?

    I'm not in London so would need posting and any idea of cost before I get carried away.

    The post on there already has been arc welded onto the lug, seems to be holding forgot but not very confidence inspiring!

  • That's really stunning. The pink looks great, and agree with the others on coloured spacers - differentiates it a bit. ISPs always look great

  • Thanks everyone, i really appreciate the kind words. Im glad the spacers arent hated, tbh i only left them on as id like to put a sprint stem on it at some point so may need some extra stack. just still deciding if it will look awful or not and awaiting one coming up cheap.

    Just cross your fingers the sun comes out so i can actually ride the thing, currently getting round on the winter hack and its not as fun.

  • Pretty certain I saw the pink road bike flying around Richmond yesterday. Looked very nice!!! @Biggles567

  • I'm trying to imagine physique of the human riding this bike and I'm failing terribly. Are you riding holding the hoods?
