Names and faces to bikes

still, a nice build

Nice bike Crane! Not OTT and meant for speed.

BUT I don't like your 'sit on the fence' attitude to valve caps. Get rid!

Lovely. Treat it well!

i'll do my best but cant make any promises it takes quite a beating

That's what I fear. :{

Nice one Glen, how'd you come across that? Should I ask or I be quietly ignorant?

Friends in high places!Well, i have to go up a small hill to get to his house. And it's his friends, wanted 100 for it but i said 80 cos the wheels are built to the wrong side of the rim left to right instead of left to left kinda thing. Yeah, pleased with it. And i can make it a fixed if i want, aswell as it having a super tight rear end.

All that for £80? Jammy cu..

As said, pleased with it :D No idea who it was made by, but the guy who owned it had his friend make it for him ages ago. Would detailed pics of lugs etc help work out when it was made? Or who?

That is a really tight rear end for a road bike. Get it fixed!

'That is a really tight rear end for a road bike. Get it fixed!'

NIce....what are you riding there? A stupidly low gear like me by the looks of it.

I saw a dude that looked just like you outside my work at lunch, but he was riding a totally different bike.

Nice 40 miles in the sun today,I do ride as well you know.

can I get a discounted haircut if I quote my membership on the forum?

Just finished this project, got some toe clips on it now though. Can't seem to get a picture of me to upload though, so that will have to do.

I'm on the far right, looking extremely bored and tired while everyone looks the other way.

You mean I (me) just finished this project! mooohaha! That's the first and last time i build a bike in a pub garden.

ha ha so I'm not the only personwho thinks that when my cat sniffs my wheels. Good to know.

I always worry that I rode through meat.

a pedestrian once walked out in front of me, realised I was there, turned towards me and froze......she mounted my front wheel, quite gracefully it has to be said, headbutted me on the chin, fell to the floor and ran off into shepherds bush market before I could see if she was ok.........thats about as near to riding through meat as I have ever come i think

Nice build Crane!

@ @tlas - riding 51/19. Same as 48/18 but with a lot more skid patches.

@ tom. - i saw a guy who looked just like you when i was on my work bike yesterday, but he was dressed like a banker.

@verbs - no more deeeeep v's. but the cxp33s are a little deep. 3 weeks! come on! I won't be using this if i get a courier job over there though.....but i might bring spare cranks, and maybe a rear hub if i need to.
