^^^ - whats the point of a massive dynohub with no lights attached?

you can use it to charge your phone on the go.

You still need these decals Rob

Will look great with your dungerees.

On one of your shit bikes

CHRIS KING 1" Threadless

On sale too :)

Tyre's still backwards. And the front tyre is a Conti.

Lovely build though in all seriousness.

hmm... i obviously haven't been looking hard enough.

they must have got them in fairly recently, as they were out of stock a month or two ago.

ha!

i don't mind derailleurs though, they have their place.

gears are good for long rides.

Guys stop it I can't eat any more popcorn...

@ Kingcutter, what are the bikes you've actually kept, if any? Or do you sell them all in the end?

Seeing the number of bikes that go in and out of your door I don't know how you find the time.

I know. It was the only milatary based fixed gear quote I could find in my dusty old brain! ;)

nice work rob. not a fan of those chubs but love the rest of the build and the general theme - and of course, it's great to see you rocking the Fizik bar tape.

@spagettihops: i really love your bike and it was the reason to buy my lopro. but i don't understand those chubs. the rearwheel looks like a motorbike-rearwheel.

and the matt-green-black look is lovely (although i hate the military)!

jonny..... thanks dude...and you cant go wrong with the Fizik!

eingang... thanks alot..... the chubs are definitely a love/hate thing i think!

What's the deal with the Chubs though - are those industrial bearings, or more of a style thing.

They're light and stiff aren't they?

I don't really understand the engineering behind the design.

i was wandering how long before I came out.....

Nice spagbolcircles! love that bike, and it always looks brand new!

Black chainring bolts?

finally got my new wheels sorted, after waiting forever for my Chub to turn up.... changed the bars and stem over too..... just needs a new saddle now, thinking about a Regal.

...and yes, i know the rear tyre is on back to front, but the tread will be gone in a week or two, and i cant be arsed to change it.

It definitely look nicer, what gearing is that? it look pretty spinny.

I love this colour scheme! Nice work, hoops. B43 of H+ rims?

I was going to do something similar on my Steamroller, which is a similar green, but all of my components are silver. I'm happy with it, but it's not nearly so millitaristic and that makes me sad.

yeah i know...but i cant find any 1 inch threadless ones anywhere!

funny i have one sitting on my bench.
