Argon 18 Electron

As you can probably see, 2 different stems (didnt like the white one) and already dirty!

We are the 'clown bike' gang !! :)

Our motto: (but in Latin) "no two wheels shall ever match in colour" and "let he who deems to match colour with colour be cast out amongst swine"

wait, haven't i broken the second rule already?

@tynan - that is one sweet ride. I'd love an argon 18; very tempted once I've paid off my overdraft for my Macbook. They're beautiful (in a modern way).

"5x4 and 10x8 are the same ratio, is it just the size that hurts ?"

the writing is smaller on 10x8.

somethings wrong with the blank one it's out of proportion to be film

@tynan - once you have your baby, you won't get a chance to ride it in public or otherwise, so it doesn't really matter how fucking garishly ugly it looks.

Nice bike though ;)

You could get a Moser frame with a basket, and swap the 'r' of the decals for another 's'. That's the bike you'll be keeping next to your bed for the first 3 months.

been using 10x8, 5x4 for longer than i care to remember my portfolio used to be mounted 10x8 transparencies. (though not shot film for the last few years) still got a linhoff technicardan but haven't used it for a job for about 3 years. it's all computers these days :-)

Well, I like the frame :)

What do you use now? I have been thinking of getting a Canon 400D (can't afford the 40D !) but I don't know too much about that sort of thing.

Flog some of your bike parts and you could afford it :)

hippy Flog some of your bike parts and you could afford it :)

Bloody good idea ! - seriously ! - I will dig through the parts mayhem and post them in classifieds. :)

Well, I had a clean-up here and figured you could do the same with your seatpost collection, etc :)
We've all seen the photos.. all your parts are belong to us..

A little out of my league !

hows the 40D compare to the Nikon D80?

are those cranks the ones you got powder coated tynan? they look sweet...

Yep! Cheers!

this is a slightly similar bike, bodern track for the street

i don't mind that bike, except for grips and rear wheel. similar to someones build as well!!

Drops, proper front wheel and clipless pedals and you have a winner.

i like that BMC frame too. am adding it to the list of aluminum possibilities. how much a frame like that set one back anyone?
