For Sale: Single Speed Project

  • Hello all,

    I've ended up in a spot of bother with this one, I've ordered a new bike
    this one has to get going, I have been slowly building it, getting somewhere and no where at same time!

    So I'll describe it so you have an idea of what this is.......

    Frame 52 st c-t 56 tt ctc
    Not sure of origin of frame, its got Campagnolo dropouts, Cinelli BB.
    Has been taken to www.armourtexltd.co.uk & has the paint stripped of
    then Poly coated, a type of resin that is transparent showing off welds
    and tubing.
    Wheels cost me a fair bit & are tied and soldered (£140) they have
    been ridden "down the road" and back once or twice, they are clinchers
    and have some tires fitted which work fine with the tight clearance on the rear.
    The cog is a White Industries 16t in vgc, it hasn't seen much action.
    Other parts are...gold riser Nitto bars on 60mm ITM stem, Gold Finger brakes in matching gold colour,
    Cinelli mash bar tape wrapped on. Shimano cranks, with 42t Charge ring in good order,
    Shimano chain from TokyoFixed, really bling!

    Now the bad...the front brake is totally fine well set up, perfect
    but there is a problem with the return spring tension on the rear, it sucks!
    The brakes are Shimano 105 but "old" and have new pads, but could do with upgrading I think,
    as THE BIKE WORKS SPOT ON apart from this!!!
    Hell yeah bung a 16t cog on there and ride it fixed....take the sucking rear brake off there!!

    Not much left to say except the price....**SOLD (collected)
    **
