"Brick Lane of London's famous London."

Brilliant.

chris crash BoBoBo do you work in a really posh estate agency in Mayfair?

Ha, no, i work in a posh (ish) agency in Bloomsbury, betwixt Gower St and Tottenham Ct Rd :)

I'm not really posh though, just a friendly soul, probably the nicest estate agent in london! (most are wnakers)

Hi mate, i see loads of people looking at my bike as they walk past, i leave it there so no-one nicks it, they would have to be bloody quick if they try! ;)

LSHTM ay, I've found a few apartments for bod's from your place over the last year or so!

I've now adjusted the bars, just threw it together and didn;t cheque the angle... ops, all better now though :)

Wolfenger Here's a pic of me and my bird. Haven't put a picture of my bike up yet for two reasons. 1) It's not yet fixed and 2) Its a Peugeot!
What can I say - i found it abandoned in the street and gave it a new home - ok so I'm an idiot! Say hello if you see me about - in the Twickenham/Richmond area

lol, even your mrs was dishing you out last night! :p

your trousers are not tight enough mousey -

thats why all those eastsiders can do trackstands, their hipster jeans are so tight they can't move their fookin legs

heh, he's got one leg rolled up though.

gotta respect the man's attention to detail, but I expect the lack of piercings and the expensive bike rumbled him

The bike:

The face:

You wont find me kicking about in London because I don't live there. I'll be down in a few months and hope to get myself along to watch some polo.

is your face on drugs?

Well my face hasn't changed since the last time I posted it.
Here's what I've been building up since October.
Still got the old lilac Witcomb, though this has gone in a completely opposite direction.
I'm sure there'll be a few mixed opinions which is all good.

Frame unknown. 'De Santi' Cycles old spray job.
Gipiemme rear dropouts. Squashed aero down tube. 'Camus' tubes legers-Carbon Manganese decal.
Any possible ideas of what it could be?
Columbus forks.
Gipiemme pista crankset and seatpost.
Mixed other bits! And yes...a deep V!
Oh the shame ;-)

todd you are the ultimate hipster...the god of hipsters!

@ Todd !!

Gorgeous ! :)

aidan todd you are the ultimate hipster...the god of hipsters!

No no no! That's not the idea! There's no NJS! Well...toeclips...oh dear ;-)
I kinda expected that.
I'm gonna go for a ride down brick lane then.
Anyone wanna sell me one of them plastic type wheels?

aidan is your face on drugs?

No my face was on gin. It was last night. Out with 8 people. Were meant to meet a 8:30pm. 4 of us were at my flat first and didn't turn up until 9:40pm. One of the other 4 had called us 15 times since 8:30. Supposedly they'd sat in silence since 8:30pm. They left at 11:30pm and then the night really started. Some people are just boring as shit.

Love it!!
