• I think that is my old frame I never built up and sold on. Bought from someone off here about 2/3 years ago

    I imagine so. It's done the rounds, I think I was the first person to build it up. Nice frame, but for some reason the front fork ends are not true, meaning that when you put a wheel in you have to space out the dropout with a little ball bearing to get the wheel centred.
    Very odd, considering the dropouts are all campy...
    Does the job though, clearances for 37s, and smooth as fuck.


    Commuted today after the hell yesterday and it was fine. The couple of miles from me to Peckham down ungritted back roads was actually pretty good fun with fixed 37s, felt like I was stuck to the road.

    Managed to have an altercation with a van driver who was VERY annoyed (I assume, he wasn't making much sense) that I was in primary position. Logged a complaint with his company when I got in though and received a very nice email back within 10 minutes, apologising profusely and ensuring me that he would be spoken to. Which was nice.

    Also got a few streets away from work and noticed two of the links on my chain had splayed and were just about hanging on, thankfully it hadn't come apart going across Marylebone Road at rush hour.
    Ended up taking the train home though as I forgot my fucking chain tool.

    TL;DR - I rode to work in the snow, it had its highs and lows.
