Current Projects chat and miscellany

that red bike looks really neat, i've had bad experiences with those pedals though. i had a set and the (cheese like) alloy just rips off where the clips bolt on.

Thanks, I can never get the bloody picture to show. Yeah the pedals are very cheeselike managed to mangle the left hand side one when I was squeezed onto a traffic island the other day, they will be replaced soon.

The MKS touring? They're decent pedals.

There just some cheap ebay rip off, not the MKS real deal.

2 Current projects, one just finished one just started...

A bike built for a female friend... she's already ruined the tyres and put some others on, god sake.

Stuck Nitto stem, no longer a problem...

**edit: **looks like the image ended function is playing up. 1st world problem.

Cheers! Fixed... although they looked identical to me? Bloody internet.

exactly what i did, they just munched up completely. now i've got MKS road pedals which i like alot. and they were only 20£. and have neat little flip over tabs to aid take off and the traffic lights

slowly starting to hate my steamroller because of the height of the frames:
'
probably should go new fork and scoblestack of spacers

I mean what the hell, the headtube is shorter than the one on a LOW

Looks better as it is than it would with a -6* or -17* with a stack of spacers.

It seemed a shame to scrap it, a couple of bits still to do, but it's working again...

aesthetics of the bar angle aint the problem, as this bike isnt my pretty one. I just would like to have them a little higher.

Although I didn't mind the original colour, this looks ace.

thanks man - the original colour was nice but really tatty and not original anyway - i'm definitely a fan of bikes with less colour - now all my bikes are shades of grey or raw

As always - strong work Tilover.

Really like this. Especially the colour.

What's it like to ride?

My collection of incomplete bikes as of today. I have everything to build up the Poyner again, I just haven't had a chance yet. Planet X and Dolan are both being sold (click here).

Latest situation for the winter beater...

Gonna get some different, slightly smaller tyres and need some spacer thingies for the hubs. Seat post on it's way, saddle purchased, just need grips, front calliper, cables, chain, pedals and straps!

I like the tyres.
