yeah Andy...
This looks reeeeeeeeaaaaaallllly shit!

Loving your work.

Just finished a conversion for my friend. Nice and cheap this one - total around £160ish. Still needs a proper stem and drops IMO, but he's happy with it for the moment.
The frame is a 531 "Walvale" which his dad raced for a few years in his youth.

Yeah really nice of Soul :)
When I ride, I normally ride hunched over, will sizing of the frame effect that?
(Sorry if this is a dumb question, but after all, I'm still learning)

It is only on one condition.... that you don't laugh when i turn up on a girls bike and order a cranberry juice (not drinking at the moment)

Got some new wheels on my Omega.
Phils and Dodici´s, heavy but sturdy ;)

Not keen on the Hipster's Gaffer tape, but overall that's a lovely looking built, pink phils work a treat.

is your sight going too ed?? those are purple.

and that saddle is a disco queens jobbie

Ha ha, It´s just a temporary toptube protector, nothing permanent.
Rear Campa disc and front Vento is comming to morrow, som I´ll post a update then.

I think its gorgeous, I may not know the specifics yet and such, but it is visually pleasing for me

Thanks!
I have to say that the frame is the nicest I ever ridden.
Stiff as hell.
Columbus Max Pro tubing FTW!

The second incarnation of my Fondriest track frame, now with the original track forks (not drilled, with a clamp-on brake) and hipster all white rubino pro's.

internet classifieds over here in belgium...
250 euros with a campa pista 165mm crankset and campa track hubs (non-record)... a bit of a deal i reckon.

i like everything but the stem. nicely set up bike.

only you wont be a rocket because you will have wind drag and wont be able to ride through any gaps.

i rode form waterloo to liverpool street and back today with a wheel bag on my shoulder.
on the way there it was like a sail and on the way back it kept me from going through any gaps i would usually do an made it very hard for me to destroy the hipster i was racing (which i still did despite my shoe coming out of one of my clips and having to wait to go through a lot of traffic) and overall probably added about 10 minutes onto my journey

nike looks nice though ;)
