Very! 2 left.

Muchas Gracias

Run ut of Krupnik.
Found half a bottle of vodka in the freezer and a stray can of Red Bull in the cupboard. Win!

Any projects to judge?

I have to pick up the front wheel - 700c (I know). Pedals are just for a pub run - got some Sylvians instead.
Rear coaster hub. No front brakes. The whole lot wobbles at speed. May consider moustache bars instead.

Ice dispenser, ffs! It's 2010!

Don't think I can't see that camera shake, Kris :)

It's ISO 2000 in the middle of the night, Max. Don't be so bloody fussy.

I'm toying with the idea of swapping that drilled SR crankset for Sugino Super Mighty once I get the JIS headset. Too good for the frame. Dropouts made of butter blah blah.. Told Murtle, ask i him.

*this is why Nikon>Canon *

Haha! No way!!

Anyway, at ISO 2000 you should not be getting camera shake, even if all you have is the street lights. Fuggin amateurs... ;D

Kris,
I really want to see your new bike.

I'm nearly out of money. This sucks.

If you mean the old Pinarello matched with the Shamals it was here already and it was slammed. I'ma puppy killer and don't deserve it :-)

There's a 650c Shamal on eBay right now, so maybe I will match the set for the lo-pro and put Mavic MA2s on Pinarello.

Haha! No way!!

F/1.2 Eat that!

I mean your new frame.

:-0

I dream of f/1.2...

I mean your new frame.

All in time, my friend. It's Simoncini made of Columbus Speciale. Very nice tubing.

Columbus Air is nicer ;p

Columbus Air is nicer ;p

Why don't you go and find out who made your frame while we talk? :-)

I did it was a one off that Hainault used in the TDF TT win ;p

Why all these abbreviations between friends?

Haha! No way!!

my sentiments exactly.

Oh dear. Go to the loo, old boy. Your bladder will appreciate it in the morning.

I'll tell you I'm glad I decided to go for the latter.

There are some nice 1" stems about.

For example:
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/3T-TTT-Pro-Titanium-1-A-Head-Stem-120-MM_W0QQitemZ250575562810QQcmdZViewItemQQptZUK_sportsleisure_cycling_bikeparts_SR?hash=item3a5777a83a
Titanium 3T (TTT)

£15!

Cheers tallsam... i had already found that stem, and noticed the bargainousness of it. I can't really face the fugly tig welding on it though ... I may have to rethink this AHead business, I was asking as I'm trying to decided whether to stick to threaded (like my other bikes) or go Ahead on a new frame. I was hoping to make this frame a bit more up to date, but now I'm dithering. Thing about A head is it looks crap except for one or two exceptions ... thomson in silver would be nice (discontinued), or the fancy chromo nitto ... but they seem to come a bit long for me.
