cornelius, what's your frame made of?

Cornelius, what's your frame made of?

yeah, cornelius. is it titanium?

lol, no peejay78, i didn't play polo at all: the beers hit me quite quickly, especially after i gave my second bagel away to asm. and i was stood there for quite a while trying to figure it all out - particularly, the titanium question. cornelius, enlighten us please!

ok.. what's this about then?

Are you sure it is Titanium?
(could be a cheap rip-off)

man, there's some serious BJ action going on in that bike pic! :-P

Certainly looks suspiciously like the lead piping from Cluedo to me. The Seat post clamp, now that looks like Titanium!

there was a real Bob jackson stack.

Especially when you ran into MA3K.

errr....

yes.

although he was on a surly.

it was no-one's fault. honest.

i'm still disappointed he didn't let me try it out for a game of polo :p . it's not as if i fall off or hit the ball hard or tackle hard??!!

Looks very nice Corny! Don't let it out of your sight!

Who's geared Pina tainting the purity of the stack? :P

Way to be welcoming, hippo.

His spokes are probably safer with you riding on the bike.

Was it you who hit the ball that punctured that spectator's bike?

no it was rob

yeah, rock on. helen had a great time (i think!), she had a go on my fixe later and is now converted and wanting to get one! slight problem is budget, round about 200 quid, so i suggested she build one (so she can continue riding around on her pinarello in the meantime). if anyone's got any advice - or a small frame to use as a starting point, it would be great.

convert that pinarello dude - it is screaming out for it.

ahhh... is the back bit not too wide? kinda considered it, but we didn't know if it was practical or not... so now i guess i just need to research wheels (that'd certainly be a lot cheaper, too)

Is it one of these.. ?

Do it do it do it! I'm converting an old road frame right now, and it actually needs NARROWER hubs than my pista. You can get 110 mm spaced hubs can't you? googles

Thanks for that bagle asm #2 :) Also thanks for the half of the beer that i didnt spill all over my feet :) Next time i'll buy you a bagle and a beer. Promise!

@hippy: it's the one in the pic earlier this thread -
@asm: i'm learning, i'm learning! i don't know shit about bike parts (yet). and i look forward to the bagel - it was great to meet the person who stole my name!
