Pink chain will be black and dirty, soon enough ;)
Unless he cleans and lubes it like a good boy
Saying that, my chain on my commuter is just the colour of lubed rust

Joseph isn't a good boy. He doesn't always eat all his veggies...

Finally got a replacement frame... a Gazelle Champion Mondial AB-Frame. I've just mocked it up for now - I'll built it up over the next few days, and give it a quick test ride and fancy photo Sunday afternoon.

Already considering a new wheelset for El Sid. Thinking Planet-X silver hubs on some of these Halo rims. I'm thinking I'd prefer a 36h rear wheel, but considering 36h front (for symmetry). Sound excessive?

Actually, I think I might go with Rigida Chrina rims, as they're a bit more retro looking, and I can get them for the same price, without the £8 shipping! They also sound a little nicer (they're basically an Open Pro rip-off but heavier) yet they're lighter than the Halo rims.

Nice. I'm intimidated by those long legs. So much torque. Hope I've recovered from my workout by Saturday. Walking up and down the stairs is hard work right now! ;D

Carlton's looking good Tom - it never looked that good when I had it, I wish I had polished the frame earlier.
Incidentally did you want that linseed oil to stop it rusting?

My third Cinelli in my fairly short lifetime...
Still needs work, going to run eggbeaters again once my knee heals up and new tyres once I get my money through. -

Nice! SRAM S3 cranks? I've been thinking about buying some of those. Any good?
Blake does have a nice frameset - this is true.
