Names and faces to bikes

Update - New bike now finished :)

I'm debating putting on the white tyres that have been sitting in my cupboard for the last few weeks... opinions?

Don't do it. Those tyres are ace.

Ohhhhh...... go on, let me at 'em!

btw - this frame is way too small for me hence the seatpost heading into orbit but i just love it sooooo much i can't bring myself to flog it for something bigger!

sexy. better lock it up better than that though.

do not fear young teddy, It never leaves my sight! See that window behind the bike? that's where i sit and gaze at her all day long :)

Bobob - you know that frame fits me perfectly. I just don't have anywhere to store it yet... Oh and those white tyres are proving somewhat shit on non flat / dry surfaces. Almost went flying yesterday on the south bank...

(i'm actually stockpiling them in a move to bullishly drive the market upwards).

Vivalo.. finally done, weeh.. look, it's got bartape and everything, even a piece of cloth on the top tube! :) I'm quite pleased with the result.. I hope I don't break it..

Shorter chainstays and bigger diameter tubing and that'd be right up my street cordell...nicely done!

..Because it's brown :)

as it's soon to be rested for a few months, with the possible exception of the DD will stick up my trusty Copacetic, captured just before the I.o.W ride last weekend. the same old boat too.

Told you before, I'll say it again - that cap is ace! :-)

Pert nips for a man of your maturity Mr Jonny English!
Meant to ask on Monday - have you built up the roberto frame yet?

I agree, the photo don't do 'em justice. Saw 'em last night, lovely shades of lemon cheesecake...

I seem to 'ave gawn all Dick Van Dyke on yer ass, Meery Pawpins.

This is my bike, it's had a few mods since this photo.

I ride from Streatham Common, through Tooting Bec, Balham high street, Clapham Common, Cedars Road > Queenstown road, Battersea Park, Albert Bridge and then into South Ken.
Say hi if you seem me.

Thought this would be a good place for a first post so Hi everyone.

Have been lurking on this site for a while now and decided it was about time I joined up.

I have added some photos of my Condor Potenza and a dodgy picture of me!

The bike is set up as a single speed due to the number of hills I ride up and down on my daily commute in Bristol.

Hi all,

Posted a couple of times but thought I should get a pic on or 2:

My beloved Fuji after a bus ate it.
My Dolan frame with left-over fuji bits and bobs.
My e-bay winter project (carlton frame)
Me, at Richmond park.

I ride from Walthamstow to Soho daily, often via Regents park for a couple of laps.

Will try and get out on a ride or two soon,

Tom.
