Current Projects chat and miscellany

I live on the same street at the Broadway market court

It's hard core porn if you ride it like that! Be sure to lube well before you sit on it though ;)

haha! Off to Winstanley bikes tomorrow for a brown Spoon and some bar tape.

Oh.
and pedals.

Winstanleys are a shit shop.

True. But they have shit in stock

Lovely Jammy, you were very lucky. I'd almost be inclined to call you a Jammy-git. But I won't.

just stipped my plug today.

i'm still not sure about finish/colour though. i'm leaning towards lacquered bare metal at the moment.

man that look really nice on it's own.

Could you not shift the bb?

no, my shoulder's still too fucked, i just cant get any leverage on it. if i get it powdercoated i'll have to bring it to souths so someone who has a working shoulder can do it!

Just taken mine out for a spin (nicked the pedals and saddle from my other bike)

YES! It's a beaut!

What method did you use to strip it? Looks like a clean job.

nitromorse. and wire scrubbing cloth type thing.
dont get that shit in your eyes.
it hurts.

maybe a transparent coloured coat? cihrs csrah has that nice translucent brown finish where you can still see the metal underneath.

I was just thinking (but can't be arsed to start a new thread), are companies like DMR likely to start putting out track frames do we think?

Jammy I hate you! the colour of that frame is epic.
