I have finally finished the Ken James lo-pro. A lot of work put in this one and a lot of hassle too...
I bought the frameset off eBay with 700c forks when the frame is supposed to come with 650c forks. Found forks and front wheel here. I had to get the 1" chrome forks thread lenthened - and there is only 1 bike shop doing it in London (Fitzrovia Cycles on New Cavendish Street, charged £15 for 2 inches). Finding 1" carbon spacers was fun too.
Anyway, CSB and all that. The maiden ride will happen tonight after work!
Here are some pictures:
First built with wrong forks:
Now with 650c forks, ready to ride:
