So little update. Been away over for bank holiday and came back to five parcels! Thing are taking off!!!
Met with John, Jingle Jangle, last week (top bloke, huge Man Cave too) who helped me get most of this:
What have we got?
Near NOS Record 111mm English BB
Chorus double cranks
Chorus pedals with Campag clips & straps
Record front mech
8sp Chorus Ergos
Chorus rear mech
I've also taken Hugo7's advice and gone for a non-Thomson seatpost; I've ordered a VO Grand Cru post with 30mm setback.
Undecided on saddle still. Leaning towards a standard Rolls or Concor as I kno from experience they like my arse.
Plumped for Nitto Randonneur bars and pearl stem:
Love the shape of these and an absolute snip on eBay!!
Ed, sorry mate. Shameless copy from your Oak:
Nearly there!
Balfe bikes is on the corner of my road so I've spoken to Richard nd will hopefully have the headset and BB installed in he weekend so I can start building this up! Can't wait to have his done!
