To add to my Team Banana Project I built two years ago
I brought these two frames from the UK Time Trialling legend that is Ian Cammish which were built for him by the Raleigh Special Bicycle Diviion.
The larger of the two frames has now been stripped, and refinished in the old Raleigh Team Banana colours to mimic the actual bike that Malcolm Elliot had built for him for his attempt on the world hour record.
My painter stripped the frame and forks, and then refinished them in yellow and black. I then pinstriped the lug work in the yellow areas, before applying all the re-pro'ed graphics a friend of mine made for me (including the one off 'Banana Dyna-Tech' on the top tube), and replacing the original Dyna-Tech 23-25 Titanium frame badge. To top it off I then copied and hand painted the signature of Ian Cammish onto the seat tube before sending the frame back to the painters for clear coat.
Last weekend I got the frame back, complete with the specially painted Cinelli Angel aerobars, and powdercoated chainring.
