    Still need to get some mud guards and wheels, not so sure about the big brooks seat? maybe a bit big for the frame????
    Making the grips from Neoprene and leather with hand stiching
    Going to get some Wald Baskets from the US if anyone is interested in one, please PM me

  • Just some new tyres, same old Mercian... I love her so much but I've neglected her lately... Just had her out for a little spin and she feels (as well as looks) lovely... See you bitches for a roll at lunchtime tomorrow! :)

    Looking good, not seen your mercian before.

    Friday lunchtime rides? Didn't know that took off, where are you going? Can I join?

    don't forget to add glitter, they make it look like it's an expensive metallic job, but much cheaper (if you're powercoating).

    check out velo orange, they have some nice mudguard, as for wheel, just go for Mavic Open Sport rims and System EX/Formula hubs.

    big saddle would look good, it work extremely well on my girlfriend's build.

    my gf is in Moscow for the year- so have time on my hands- and the bike I found her is pretty similar to that, but split 'top' tube.
    her bike will be a lovely shade of purple, sturmey 3 speed, pm sent about baskets.

    We've only been doing it since the middle of 2008... Good grief! ;]

  • Just sprayed the new forks up for the black lo-pro. Some strightblade steel jobbies that the bloke at my local bike shop gave me. Were originally a pretty horrible yellow/red 2 tone, now a nice glossy black :)
    Best thing is, it'll barspin (JUST)

    Expect some photos when the lacquer has dried enough for me to re-assemble.

    Photos...

    And the barspin "clearance"

  • Quality job on the fork respray, good colour match.

    What paint & Lacquer did you use?

  • Some shit in a can from the local car spray place. It's OK, not perfect. Glossy though!

    6 or 7 coats of colour then 4 of lacquer. I might polish them when it's cured if I can be bothered...but I probably can't

  • It took a while but my zero gravity brakes just showed up. Jesus christ are they pretty.

    .

    i did a similar thing (building a bike for the gf), then when i was riding home the other night, after she said she was meant to be working late and tired, when i saw it chained to the fence at the pub next to her x's place (you do the maths?!). I now wish i hadn't put my nice miche cranks on it as i ain't seeing her/them again. quality.
