Building up this nice frame. So far all parts have been sourced from LFGSS (apart from hubs and tyres).

Superb. You can get real bargains on road bikes of that era.

Bought if off Snoops. Think it's a late 60's Carlton. Coming along nicely, but I fear it may be a bit too nice for me actually!!

off-road FTW

unless you're riding on road.

HA! I knew it, i remember that frame, it looks like mine, no doubt, albeit yours has less clearance. Truly a stunner. Your choices so far are flawless. ; )

Just picked this up:

A Langdale frame (local bike shop) in 653,
Shimano 600 groupset,
Mavic rear on Open 4 CD
Nice campag seat post

Rides very smoothly, very different to the track bikes.

Will probably be swapping out a few bits after christmas.

What a beauty. Few tweaks and you got yourself a lovely ride!

that white bike would look good with risers and black cranks/wheels etc..i think drops always look too far down to be useful

Good point Pal, maybe you should write to Hoy et al to let them know that their bikes don't look right.

I find drops very useful.

ha thats why i sold it, couldn't live with myself locking it up anywhere.

i've never ridden anything so stiff and responsive as that frame though. It really flew. and it's red!

You don't exist. In all seriousness, you don't.
