faggin's back from powdercoating, will add Shimano 600 tri colour groupset

Just picked this up on eBay :-D

Reynolds 531c, 56cm square, NOS (it really appears never to have been ridden), Zeus 2001 forks, Campy headset!
Does anyone know anything about Merlin?

I neeeeeeeeeeed one of these in a 58 or 60.

That is amazing.

Just finished a fairly modest build of my new (unknown) frame. I have quite a long to-do list which should take most of the next 12 months to afford, but at least it's on the road for now!

Top of the list is shorter clips to try and reduce the toe overlap a bit. Then a nicer/less shit crankset.

will it be comfortable with one hood brake lever?

cheers for the advice on the trike. Will check out some plumbing fitting to see if there's anything sturdy looking. Not sure about trusting my body weight to rubber.

The plan for inside the box is a box/seat at one end to keep the hood and a repair kit in. the other end will have a fold down seat. Need to do some measuring and get some marine ply cut.

just need to go to newcastle and collect it

Yeah I quite like it really, the controls are swapped as-is from my previous ride so I suppose I'm used to it :)

We don't want carbon, we want

Any air hardening current projects going on?

Just for you..

Not completely current, but it it has a new wheel and seatpost so that counts I suppose..

Noca is almost up to edscoble standards of re-posting his own bike.

don't worry, it wont happen again ;)

just an update to my built
new components:

• carbon saddle with titanium rails
  
• carbon cranks
  
• chainring
  
  

i started to take off the "miche Pista WR" stickers from the wheels. The stickers left alot of glue. I must "spray" the glue out of the front wheel. Meanwhile the HED wheel will do the job.
The new carbon components reduced the bike weight in 345gr

ps: to all the people who know this bike a little more gray... this gray changes alot (sun/shadow)

just felt you wanted to see it again

Can we see it with the matching wheels?

Just to remind me....
