The Condor has landed

but that's what the internet is for!

Its all about shopping for the ladies and porn for the gents or is it the other way round.

I love that abstracted condor logo / typeface. I wanted that frame and would have done similar but a bit less HHSB - pista drops and deep section rims. But then it'd just look like a track bike with a front brake, which would look a bit stupid pootling around town. But my bike basically looks like a watered down track bike pootling around town. Which is pretty stupid, but gives me pleasure. Hope this does for you too VV - can't wait to see it with all the finishing touches.

and porn, dont forget the porn

oh i hadn't forgotten the porn...

Oh fuck off you silly cunt! ;-)

oi that's fighting talk where i come from!

The frame is very nice looking.
The main components are good looking.
I think the issues are with the small details
i.e. trying to match the white and red bits (saddle, grips pedals)- though you are going to be changing these parts as they arrive.
I don't think you can go wrong with black and silver.
Are you looking to build smething like this?

^ i don't like

^ that I do.

me no like

i guess it reminds me of the whole boy racer souped up car thing; but that's inescapable, we're boys.

am i right in thinking this is a painted up bianchi?

i quite agree.
this is the sort of wankers motor i could see pj driving

if i could drive, which i can't.

Yep, Bianchi Concept.

Name names ! :D

oi that's fighting talk where i come from!

Oh you're not a jock as well are you?

Oh you're not a jock as well are you?

i was joking :s

Just waiting for spacer kit from HED so i can get a working chainline on the rear disc, then shes will be ready to roll . . .

Many thanks to Eyebrows for the frame, and Brian for the rear disk. Just need to decide if i get a white or black chain, erring towards black as i think white might be a step to far . . .

londons famous bikes... shame... going to a good home though! still a beaut.

worth bumping the thread, ray you deacon.

... i couldnt be arsed copy and pasting the pics into famous bikes just thought id shout out of this one...tool!

Half term's early this year? :-$

On the plus side, I've never seen a Lavaro like that before, it's slightly gorgeous. And in original form a HHSB I actually quite like!

TBF to the fella though it is fuckin hideous
