Piss poor phone photo... cleaned it all up and ready to rattle can... still trying to work out what to do fork wise.

Chris, do ya need parts for that? I haz.

To be fair, I have everything I need... might be interested in a track stem for another bike if you have one going spare...

Cinelli 2a? :)

Yeah, what we talking captain...

I haz..

Parts for that frame must be special

I have a Raleigh frame to do something like that, i will call it it the Game Bike

Ha, do you have any pics or your own self congratulating thread yet? What year is your Raleigh? I have a 73 track I plan on restoring after this...

Just for curiosity, how are you planning to fill the dents? With Plastic Padding or similar compound?

Chris: here.

Not sure how I will fill the dents yet but something like that I'd guess... want ot do it myself rather than have someone else do it... that's the whole vibe of the project.

still trying to work out what to do fork wise.

What happened to the original plan ?

Back on track... Started stripping the girls ready for re weld.

Forks have gone in for tightening... excitement growing.
"I'll make them so the tyre touched the crown, then I'll file a little bit off..."
BOSH!

Really like the look of this frame,, cant wait to see the finished ride

Ha, cheers dude, road though... and not flat crown... so close, again!

no worries man... didnt think they would be right but thought it worth a punt.

So, the forks are back and perfectly balanced with 20's (Thanks Ted! - a true craftsman, and also mentioned that he hadn't built the forks originally, so another lie from BLB, or just crossed wires somewhere?).
Just a bit more cleaning up to do and then I'm off to buy the paint.

Looking good Chris!

Cheers!
Cleaned the forks up more as spraying revealed a few bumps... wish it was bright ad dry so I could crack on with the frame (and get non shit grainy photos from my iPhone)

Looking good, nice work on the forks, that has tightened everything up.
