    do tell old chap...

    Well it is my birthday!
    and no.
    not gonna.
    not till I get my hands on everything.
    Then maybe, but maybe not.
    But this summer is going to be the summer of projects.
    (this, geek2, maybe building the moser for Nav***hire)
    And I got paid by my college today, which was a nice surprise, considering they'd owed me a fair bit of money.
    But it will be nice.

    .

    I couldn't possibly have any idea what you're talking about...

    (Shh... It's a secret)

  • I'm also seriously considering selling my Fort in order to start a new fixed project... Cinelli Supercorsa Pista perhaps...

  • I have *finally *finished converting my Peugeot Carbolite 103. Started off riding SS and before long I was hooked on fixed. Riding 52x18 on mainly stock parts.
    Already looking around for my next build!

    Enjoy!

    Nice! I used to ride one of those as a kid, until i snapped the frame by jumping down too many steps.

    Ive seen a few of these around lately, one guy was riding one with gears still and tiny chopped down bars.

  • make sure you get those spare chain links

    Hhhhmmm, I do like it tight.

  • yeah, but you didn't build that

  • ...and it's impractical

  • The only things on it which haven't been changed are the headset, front wheel and seat tube. I don't see how it is impractical?

  • ever got a puncture? ever changed a wheel? ever ridden a bike?

  • tick, tick and tick

  • woohoo!

  • Haha, ok fair enough, but I am just getting started out and still learning a lot. Next project I'll aspire to something a little better...

  • I couldn't possibly have any idea what you're talking about...

    (Shh... It's a secret)

    I clearly was not talking about you- hire at the end- you are clearly IRE.
    obv.
    jeez.

  • Haha, ok fair enough, but I am just getting started out and still learning a lot. Next project I'll aspire to something a little better...

    no the references to the chain being tight were to the swagger bike below yours. yours is fine as the dropouts face forward.

  • Flyer i just finished for a mate who wanted an SS for around town, i think he'll switch up the wheels and cranks to black ones when he has the cash, but its come out nice and he is on 2 wheels again following the theft of his last steed

  • Nice Flyer!

  • After an epic two days if tinkering - the 'Faux-Pro'


    And also a single speed for the wife - thanks to RG37 for the frame. I rode this home tonight and its peachy!

  • Here's my Peugeot very near completion

  • keelogs reflector ftw :D

  • Sammy your 'faux-pro' is great, it looks like a lot of fun!

  • [QUOTE=joe1983;715012]Just got my frames back from a respray at Bob Jackson - I think they look class! Both are late 60s early 70s and were a wreck before. Going to build up the Merlin as a geared bike with Nuovo record, record, gran sport groupset I have and a nice brooks. Thinking about building the Freddie Grubb as a fixed with black deep v's on some gold on one high flange hubs I have but will probably sell it as my bike collection is a lot healthier than my bank balance. Here's some pics:

    Merlin looks a treat man, can't wait to see it built up

  • keelogs reflector ftw :D

    You know that! Spokey-dokeys might have been a bit too far but I think the reflector I can get away with!

    Nice Sam, like it :-)
