Current Projects chat and miscellany

I assume that's you in a shitty rover at the Nurburgring? A bit odd(er), if it's not you.

Certainly is me, that "Rover" (MG) hauls ass.

0-60 in 3 days, 47bhp, and driven by geography teachers, ace!

205 bhp 0-60 in 7 seconds even with a fat fuck like me.

Or a Peter Stevens tweaked cheap as chips track machine

One of the most underated cars out there

No chance of getting 25's on there 23's are tight I am hoping to get some carbon rims I will be putting 20's on then.

I haven't ridden on them yet so can't say whether it's a good idea or not, but on a whim I stuck Conti GP Supersonics on mine. Thinking I should have gone 23c though.

Finished the high-pro...

The photo doesn't do the frame justice, looked good at West's!

Alright if you have the cash, besides - I prefer the sleepers...

Not as expencive as what you think now.

Bits to be ordered next week. Still not sure about what wheels I'm going to put on.

Owen told me what the frame was last night and I almost pissed myself with excitement.

So what's it gonna be? Dura Ace?

Loving the Pinarello Graham, but sort the bar angle out!

Not for the cranks, no: Truvativ Omnium (unfortunately the black ones aren't available here), I haven't ruled the hubs out though. Also very tempted by Mavic Ellipse... Decisions decisions...

Mavic Ellipses would be perfect for that Laurent. Is it the new Look aluminium track frame btw?

Yep, they'd be perfect. I like the Omniums. They'd suit the bike, particularly the silver ones.

P.S. You better not be putting a small chainring on it.

So Jealous of that Look

Or just get one of these.

Fixed

Pigfarmer is at the ring this weekend, lucky bastard

It is indeed, I'm just wondering if it's not going to be too harsh a ride on the road (it's not like I'm going touring with it but still).

My Grandfather have an Rover MG, one of those V8 one he got for cheap when Rover went under.

Guess what he did? he change the body from the MG to a normal 75 one (with chrome, normal grill, etc. apart from the wheel), simply because he want to look a bit more respectful while overtaking vehicle on the motorway.

those new Look's are awesome, tempted myself!

I don't think so. I know plenty of people who ride on them every day, and people who work on them too. They are only something like 24 spoke and have low flange hubs so won't be too harsh.

if i had the money, i would prefer this one:

£3000 for a V6 that does 0-60 in 7 seconds thats under 10 years old is hard to come by!

Thats what I'm talking about, good shit.

Looking good dude. Like the Mavic wheels on there.

+1 to Ellipses on the Look. I've got the Ellipses on my Koga at the moment, but the plan is to flick them over to a Look 464 frame when the Pringledrome opens.
