I've just got to work out what sort of jig to build to braze up the rack, I don't think the cable ties will work in the long run. After that some brazing still needs some tidying, some cable stops and pump thingies need to go on, and then I can start the joyous task of polishing the stainless bits. Then I can paint it. I'm beginning to think my hope to have it by Christmas is rather optimistic.
Ed, in answer to your earlier question, it has been built around a 26mm tyre and mudguards to suit. Without the mudguards, or with some cut around the stays it wll take a 32mm.
(please no one mention that the internal routing for the rear brake comes out on the wrong side)
