Current Projects chat and miscellany

My steamroller is almost done

New bullhorns, thought rubber bar ends would be a good idea!

also thinking of building this up as a single speed for my uncle to use as a beater around London when he's at Uni', good idea?

First fixed project almost done, want to restore the fame and fork.

restore how? it looks great to me

Yep, leave it!

my thoughts exactly ^
is this a cinelli? also, all steel everywhere, must weigh a ton)))))

got some sparkly post this morning

^^Correct, it's a Cinelli pista from the 1960ies (hard to find the exact year). All steel it is. I dont think it's that heavy, have to weigh it someday...

I think it would look better with the correct decals...or atleast a headbadge.

Slowly gathering parts for my winter project.

still need to decide on rims, thinking about tb14's in black. black tape and black saddle.

Go for the hard anodised dark grey finish TB14s, will look much better on that frame.
I have one in black and althoughs its a great rim, have already scratched it (no brakes) and it just doesn't look as good to my eye.

yeah they are pretty sexy rims...

Amazing.

restore the frame, why not.

^^ Or at least take out a link in the chain if you can get away with it.

^I'll see what I can do :). Thanks for the comments!

Fitted a set of proper track forks to my fort. Pretty pleased with it now although I would like to get the forks painted black to match the frame at some point.

Looks really well, " much better with the quill , I'm cookie on the dfgss and I bought the red alu frame and forks off you well over a year ago now
Have been on the dfgss recently and nobody is posting there anymore , would you be intrested in restarting the Dublin section here ?

^ nice, whats the stem and seatpost?

looks like thomson inline seatpost

and 3ttt pro chrome quill

Don't paint the fork! It looks hot.

I was thinking about asking that just today actually. It was way better when it was on here, the separate site is dead.

needs something blue on the back of the bike i think, even it out.

New lo-pro Rixon is coming on well, not quite finished, but on a whim bought Donut's Interpro, so that's getting more action now. Anyhow, here's the collected current projects now (last one's my girlfriends)

Nice collection.

That fork on the bob looks like it has no rake? also what mudguards are they?

disaster :[
just realised the Dublin section here on lfgss was disabled to try and promote the dfgss website . we could try and get it undisabled but i have a suspicious feeling this could make alot of people angry :/

^^Yes, they're straight

The mudguards are the Tokyo Fixed own brand ones attached with p clips

Radiator > all bike stands
