  • Hi guys
    i have acquired a 74 witcomb fram and was wanting to convert it so i need help
    i don't know whether to go classic with it or just buy new bits and bobs

    some advice on cranks etc would be greatly appreciated, i noticed some have bought sugino cranks from the states recently..
    the bike is lavender

    thanks
    pete

  • 74 might be a bit big.

  • I know a guy that can sell you a front break, grips and chain for £100.

  • year 74
    not frame size...
    funny tho

  • do not convert.

  • well its jus a frame
    i need to build up

  • Went round their workshop the other day. Would love to get one of their frames!

    few pics here

  • nice snaps

  • Why not look at fixedgeargallery for inspiration.. ? I would try an old/new-skool build with lots of chrome.
    I won't tell you what to fit without at least a picture of the frame... (pssst! hi-flange / chrome deep-vs - rest should vintage.. except top-tube hanky and Cycle computer.)

  • Witcombs are worth LOADS. Check out their website, they're like £2000 new.

  • weren;t they much cheaper not too long ago and then they pumped up the price? or am i manking that piece of trivia up?

  • yes they where fine until toney malone killed them, as he will do to all that is good in the universe.

    i think the op should hit up one of his 30 quid a night lectures on cycle fashion.

  • easy

  • or not?

  • no, no... it is easy.
