Fucking hell! what drive you to have a red chain in the first place?!

Ed can't you see it matches the brake cable and decals.

and nick griffins face.
the cunt.

Before and after pic;

Mr Scoble clearly not a fan....fair enough

.....it was all that Evans bikes had at st pauls unfortunately, think this will be changed soon.

About the red chain? frankly I think any kind of coloured chain just look silly and look worse with time.

It does a great job of highlighting the slackness of the chain. I like it.

Just realise I have enough part to make a 'porteur' bicycle;

Just need to find a Raleigh Royal frameset so I can start putting it together.

I have a frame that might suit your needs, a Tom Bromwich. But its actually old, so designed for 27"s.

But a nice, and rare-ish frame from a small Coventry framebuilder.

The parts on it are fairly tatty from decades of storage. But the bike was barely ridden from new. The stringy bits are still on the tyres! The frame & paintwork are immaculate.

That Griffin was perfect! shame.

That Tom Bromwich look fantastic! unfortunately the last thing I want to do is to convert a rare classic bicycle into a porteur for dicking about in town, much like the Griffin above come to think of it.

Please, it would be my Pleasure Mr Scoble sir!

How much are you going to pay for one of these Raleigh Royal frames?

Something like £50 hopefully, I'm trying to build a bike in a true Parisan porteur style (and function despite it's coaster brake) like this Alex Singer;

I got new wheels.

IF anyone brings up the brake debate I will jump through the internet and clobber them with a D-Lock.
max is a liability.

Oh Little Maxy, how are they're going to survived the coming winter?

We will see!

They're only wheels.

incidentally I found the missing strap last night.

Ha, can I still have it? I'm currently using the other one as a radio holder.

Radio holder? Are you a courier?
