TM's Steel Evolution - Panasonic NJS to Donohue 853 RAD

yep

Are the rims from the orient express?

I believe so.

what's the quality like?

Haven't ridden them yet, but they look/feel great. I would've rather the matte thick weave finish, but at the price I ain't complaining.

your saddle angle sucks every time, if you cant handle the drop then get different bars/ stem.

Check out Mr six posts giving it the large^!

Have to say though tom, this is crying for a more classic saddle IMO.

Also swapped saddle for a turbo then an SLR, I know the SLR doesn't look the best but I prefer to not have sore balls....

Nothing to do with drop to bars, sadde angle is a personal thing so kindly fuck off.

Looking forward to seeing yours built. On for an NJS forum ride either over the next couple of months or next spring?

I would be up for an NJS ride. We should get a good photo of the three of us with our sonics.

On a side note, I really want to get a "My other bike is NJS" sticker for my beater....

Yes straight up, definitely. Hopefully mine will actually be finished by then.

Yeah sounds good, although my sticker might read "my other saddle is NJS..."

Classy gets stale... Now with Corima.

I like it more with that Corima. Although in my eyes it needs a fatter saddle, I'd prefer a Rolls. But I can understand that you like this SLR, so I'd keep it, also because when you ride it, nobody sees it.

Cheers. Now it has an sp72 and I swapped the saddle out for an SLR gel.flow which is slightly chunkier and looks a little less out of place, can't really tell from this terrible photo likehaha.

Ha, I have been swapping saddles and taking shitty photo's of mine tonight too..

lol^

Better shot with the Corima...

NJS Pearl 9, b125s and Champs... Tried a few track cockpit options and reckon this istthe one...

Also put a beater back wheel on as don't want to destroy the DA/Araya...

you spend a lot of time at the train station

Potentially selling this frame any interest drop me a PM.

The size is 59 ST ctc/57 TT ctc...

no need for the orbropro and this? think again!

Got another steel frame I may be building... It's not arrived yet, so I'll decide when I get it.

you are just fecking prolific... give it a rest would you. making us look bad! any hints to what is pending arrival?

Nothing too exciting.

Mark, I think I need help...

well all I'll say is the first part is done my friend.

Acceptance is step 1 right.

now what is next again?
