Current Projects chat and miscellany

don't know yet. Got a black 3t mutant stem with it and some nice Cinelli Nerve bars, so will use them. Will probably use the wheels off Jess's new Raleigh and put my RS80's on hers. Then it's a matter of finding cheap mechs, levers and getting a long bolt so I can use a rear brake as a front and a cassette.
I'm going to use security skewers and am trying to build it as cheap as possible, hopefully under £150 all in.

I've got some campag mech's and levers you can probably have

yes please

you'll have to use dt shifters though

ah, no can do, don't have the bosses or the inclination for DT shifters.

you haz bosses, i sees them

yeah, they're where the in line adjusters for the STI's go.

ha, but you can use them for dt shifters no?

probably, but that's just not going to happen

liking the new build jack. really want to come to swansea soon so when i do we can tear up dem hillz on our rad bikez.

totes, will be sick to the power of sick.

This is now in my room

the yellow is darker in real life, it's really nice.

FFs i wanted this! Isnt it gonna be too small for you? anyway DIbs for when you come to sell it in a month or so

lush, well done, son
strangely enough, even different rear and front wheel dont bother me this time around
is zipp tubular btw?

Titanium cassette? speed? make?

Top picture not sure, stem bung thing?

you can wrap it 12 times, it won't be comfortable.

I beg to differ, mine is super comfortable, even without glove.

reckon it's more about the bike fit rather than how thick the handlebar tape is.

I have the grey one, but since I changed bar, will put the lime green on it, my only regret is that the new brake levers are aero thus cable go on the handlebar.

Drop handle bars require two rolls."

That just mean that one roll isn't enough for the whole handlebar, so one roll each side, it does not mean you need to double wrap it.

Top picture not sure, stem bung thing?

Fibrelyte top cap and alloy bolt to go iwth (if it fits) bond in bung (not pictured as I don't have it yet).

Cassette is a Dura Ace 7900 11-25. I might sell it though, as I have a 12-27.

£?

Not sure- I'll let you know.

what do you mean - not sure? did you find in on the street corner? =))

Not sure I want to sell it, mainly. I need to ride it and see if I get on with it.

62

c-t-c

You may well be Henry. I don't know what my height is for certain, but it's 6' 2" at most. Reasonably long legs. Largest frame I've owned but it fits a treat.

Really? I had you down at about 5'9". I don't think I could do a 62. Lovely build though

Petrol.

FFS can't you hear me?

I heard you, I thought you were trolling.

Wouldn'g go for wound ups myselft more of and EC90SL fan. If you can save for it wait, it'll be worth it!

Would Ups are laterally stiffer IMO

Easton forks are notoriously noodle like.

fes you ghost! if i see you out on the streets, i will wish you a happy new year!
