Current Projects chat and miscellany

Just heard back from the seller RE this thing.
Going to make for an interesting build! 700c front and rear as I expected, but 130mm rear spacing. Means I may do MTB disk hubs with a bolt on sprocket or something. Hmmm.... any other suggestions?

130 mm rear hub. i'm getting one for my new project too, which happens to have same rear spacing

^for a bargain frame and 4th bike like jammy's, smart thing is to spend £40 for a pair of SJS hubs.

are they 130mm? where can i find?

word yal just finished my first build. let me know what yo think.

fucking lovely!
needs a white concor...
i want it!

Very Nice!
Did you buy that Mercian from the-smiling-buddha?

You're gettin a concept pista? To replace the plug racer?

Cool.

Nah! i won't replace the Charge, it's a decent ride. I'm getting the Pista to use over at Wolves when it's built up.

indeed i did..though I suspect he may chastise me for the non-authentic nature of the build.

nice 1 that will save me a lot of money

i don't think those wheels go with your build...so you can sell them to me ;)

V-nice.

Also catboy, nice build dude. I would like to see that with some skinwall tires

:o.

some sweet builds are happening right now...

cheers dude, the white tyres have gone a nice beige so might be doing that in the not too near future.

Finished my first build the weekend just gone, with the help of BLB and a few forum members :)

Got it for £36 quid on ebay just before xmas, when she looked like this:

Now she looks like this:

Not quite finished, but as far as the funds allow it to go at the moment. (Sorry about the crappy yellowey phone picture).

^ Again, very nice.

I'm a bit of a Raleigh fan, the Record & the Medale are looking good.

I kinda like how it originally look to be honest.

Why not go to halesowen, it's much closer.

Now she looks like this:

I like this - a conversion that doesn't look shit for a change.

You realise how much of a bargain you got?

I know Lee cooper charges £70 for track ends, that plus paintjob mustve been a pretty penny.

Looks superb though.
