im liking the fiber of your fabric john. very nice. some lovely bits. i really need to finish mine - or start it.

Cheers, Gav.
Many of the shiny bits are second-hand ebay finds. Not at all expensive as long as you're not desperate for that well-known-brand-that-everyone-feels-the-need-to-have! I went for mostly vintage Sakae Ringyo parts 'cos I like the look and they're cheaper. Win, win!

Looks great John. Very retro, great colourway and most of all it looks fast !

Thanks Ricky, that's exactly what I was aiming for. As for fast, I've only ridden it to the end of the street and back so far, so time will tell.

Commissions now being undertaken ;)

The lo-pro is away for winter and the old track path is back.
Rory O'Brien track path frame from the 60's(?), mudguards, 28c Schwalbe Marathon tyres, 3t drops, wanted hoods so I figured I might as well put both brakes on anyway. Really happy with it.

Latest build so far.

Finished Build

looks fast matt - need to head up for a winter track session soon boys?

What frames that? Dolan?

Southshields 'veledrome' or a legit one Gav? Id be up for either

No, re-sprayed Tifosi Pista. Definitely up for a track session soon.

i was thinking gypsies green, but would also be up for getting a manchester veoldrome trip organised. How much interest would there be for this?

I'm keen to do either ;)

+1 !

Finally got a pic of the Plume. Can't wait for some decent weather to ride it.

CLASSY, very very nice gav

Really nice Gav, worth the wait.

Nice classic build.
