  • Jake Yeah, I saw in the ebay thread about someone who had it when it was pink. I bought it last week from Build (on here), needed a new frame after the last died.
    prior owner to build is mahmud (moose) ;) . think it turned out pretty good.

  • Merci monsieur. Maybe he will know who made it, I'll get in contact.

  • Jake Merci monsieur. Maybe he will know who made it, I'll get in contact.

    he has no idea either ;) , no-one does. mid 70's english, claud butler, harry hall, holdsworth...god knows!

  • he said someone was telling him that from the lugs it looked like a harry quinn, but yeah, god knows

  • When I picked it up, Build had discussed it with Vaz who had just resprayed it, and he thought by the lugs it looked like a Roberts. But I like the mystery.

  • Not a complete new bike yet but the start of my next build.

    Went to a bike jumble this weekend.

    Basso frame, columbus sl tubing. Picked myself up a brooks, campagnolo cranks and a pair of brake levers. I am thinking of building this up for long rides hence the aero levers for maximum comfort and brakes aka Hippy style.

    Needs a respray may re do the same colour as it is now. The metalic red looks very slick.

  • nice bike tommy, will be nice to see it when its been built

  • another red bike! :p

  • Ever since I first saw a candy apple red PK Ripper, I've promised myself a candy apple red bike...

    I think my next one will have to be the one...

  • Turd Fergurson thought id put up a picture of the upgrade...

    sorry about the camera phone image but dont have internet at home and im in our studio.

    Awesome - pursuit frame and risers. Funny as fuck! Not dissing - I think it looks fun.
    Great for skiddage to I bet. (Though perhaps not so great for erm.. stopping??)

  • is the bike in there somewhere?

  • eggpie

    seperated at birth :D

  • This is me

    and this is my bike

    pretty aint she

  • Real purdy. Some kind of Road/Path or Grass Track frame, is it?

  • Not me yet but everyone needs a goal..

  • He's gonna blow!!

  • Apologies for the crappy camera-phone pics

    My bike, 25" Harry Hall of fleabay, mavic rims, cheap hubs, cheap bars chopped. bargain bin specialized seat,

    Me (hungover)

  • its so big it looks like a mtb with 26" wheels!

  • I don't like your picture.

    You look like you are about to punch me.

  • dogsballs its so big it looks like a mtb with 26" wheels!

    I know, I've had to drop the front brake by a good 10mm, and there is about 20mm of clearance between tyre and fork crown, I do wonder if I could get 27" wheels on there to try and balance it up a bit more, it does look a little silly. My MTB with 26" wheels (23" frame looks even worse than this). I'm building a 29er MTB at the moment with a VooDoo Dambala steel frame to try and get a balanced looking bike, I tried out a mates 18" kenisis MTB and I make it look like a BMX, he also has a 14-15" cove 4X bike which looks like a monkey bike under me.

    TheBrick(Tommy) I don't like your picture.

    You look like you are about to punch me.

    I'm a calm, placid, peace loving creature, just don't get between me and my guiness ;)

  • i've just finished it, it's got gash forks on it at the moment but i'm gonna go pick some more up today i hope.

    just put the new forks on it, the bicture is a bit yellow because of the light in my front room but you get the idea.

    plus a free fuzzy picture of my trek.

    my face.

  • your not a saimese twin by any chance???

  • its conjoined twin.....have some respect jason!

  • Turd Fergurson thought id put up a picture of the upgrade...

    sorry about the camera phone image but dont have internet at home and im in our studio.
