HHSB "Pimped" Charge Plug

My first ever SS bike was a blue charge plug - back in late 2009. I then spent far too much on a "custom" conversion job, which was pretty shitty and is what I ride to this day.

Being such a snob, but also lacking any knowledge, I decided that the charge was for poseurs, sold it and stuck with the conversion.

Now I've realised how awesome it actually was and have got something nice on the way, which I will try and build up a bit better/differently to how god intended it.

This is on the way to me courtesy of philxthomas. I will never build it up like this so this is the closest pic of the "starting point".

Plans:

• Remove rear brake, run fixed.
  
• Use my hplusson/phil rear wheel.
  
• New front wheel.
  
• Proper chain.
  
• New chainring. 47/17 gearing or thereabouts.
  
• Install my brutal fixie skidder pedals.
  
• Track drops up front.
  
• New stem (slammed).
  
• New saddle.
  
  
  

Possibilities:

• New seatpost?
  
• New cranks?
  
• New headset?
  
• New paint/ stripped?
  
  

Got some of the above already, will post further when the bike arrives.

Are you buying a complete OTP plug and planning to change all of the parts? If so why not keep an eye out on here for a nice frame and use the bits you already have. There are usually some great bargains. e.g. this was sold this week: http://www.lfgss.com/thread98751.html

Dis thread is LOLz blud

Dampener.

I wont change all the parts immediately and will sell on the excess bits. I thought the price was a good deal and was a bike I wanted to ride again.

As for the graham weigh - I did get 8th dibs but it sadly wasnt enough.

what about this?

Are you still interested in the Swinnerton, btw?
I'm back in london now if you'd like to have a look.
