Current Projects chat and miscellany

Wow.

that is all i have to say on the matter.

Jealousy

Blimey, that bike is stunning Giz, it also look like the measurment fit me perfectly too!

That is the most porn worthy machine i have seen in a long while!!!!!

Perfect Giz, just perfect.
I'll get a complete photo to Steve next time I head up there

that bike is hot,hot,hot!

Rad!

That hexagonal tubing is FUCKING GREAT.

that thing is hot sex

Stunning!!!

Are those hubs campag records?

If my bike could see that it would have an erection

.. duh :) love that bike.. :) funny that I just posted that old shit Rossin and that dmczone's lovely bike thas the same hexagonal tubing.. :)

Mudguards are the essence of 2009 ... Next year is the year of the mudflap. Its gonna be all about how big your flaps are.

Tell me about it!!

I finally installed the Gilles Berthoud on the Mercian... Quite pleased with the result.
That the latest state of the Mercian and probably it will remain like this, so I can issue pictures in current project...

I have a B17 champion narrow that would colour match better the bar tape, but I like the fact that the bike is not a advertisment for Brooks (I love Brooks though...). The mudflap is DIY...

Szia

Loic

lovely.

Ooh la la

Gizmond - Awesome bike!

So that's the 'little project' you were talking about!

Ive been tidying up my old track bike;/attachments/17030

Thought it was looking pretty good, apart from the rear rim. I changed it back when i was racing on it and didnt keep the original. its an Araya Aero2 24 spoke and im trying not very succesfully to find another. I used to get people always wanting to buy the handlebars, they`re nitto Aerodynamic.

I bought it in the early nineties from a wholesaler who didnt seem to know much about it, but reckoned it was a show bike from the late eighties and might be Japanese. It was plain white with no makers marks or transfers (the Venom decals is just the respray). It has suntour dropouts and suntour superbe pro group.

If anyone out there has any ideas as to what it might be id love to know. i didnt take much interest in it when i was racing it but now i think its a great looking thing.

The fork crown is gorgeous.

Ive been tidying up my old track bike;....................blah.................blah............. its a great looking thing.

very nice machine. did it come with the seat pin. somebody was talking about frames with hard to find oval seat pins the other day, on another thread. maybe the esay shesay thread.

next time puts some clothes on!

sorry if i missed something.

gorgeous f&f duck, loving the inside of the head tube as well as the fork crown

I can't get a picture linked for some reason, but Hutch is building this up for me:

Very nice. And you have the special seat post too, lucky man.

Thank you all, I'm pretty happy with it.

Lovely build. Stands out

@vello thats looking very nice, i still need to check but i am sure that i can help out with the rear bracket thing you were looking for. don't order anything yet brother.

OK
Couple more pictures.

Yes, it was custom built. 57x57 with 75 seat and 75 head tube. Fits me perfectly (as you might expect)

All campag bits, not a full group, just each of the bits I like the best :-)

Thank you all, I'm pretty happy with it.

that is stunning G
the waiting has been well worthy
