P.S. The cloth tape is a temporary bodge until I get a couple of new, cleaner rolls, which will hopefully look a lot neater.

why not drill bars, poke cable through, use tweezers to catch it, pull out near stem, sorted.

An alternative is to create a very tight curve of cable outer and gaffer it in place....

Excellent work P!

My new wheels turned up today, no longer have the weighty white Charge ones. Rychtarski is nearing completion, just need a new headset then it is done :).

Please ignore the crappy iPhone picture, it was a swift snap between showers.

de-sticker.

google 'muniaddict' videos; he seems to have come to muni fairly late, but has made up for lost time with a vengeance.
Kris Holm is another quality name, kind of the king.

The other alternative is to run the brake levers upside down

Good point - I was wracking my brains this morning wondering how it used to be done back in the day - Thanks for the reminder - I knew there must be a simple solution! - here's another fine example!!! -

quit posting that damn picture in every thread on a regular basis!

=))

Got bored so knocked up a rack for about 15£.

Still to do- knock some holes in the bottom for drainage.
Line with something/ make a tarp covering.
Test it.

Its an S2C on the back.

for the life of mine, i cannot figure your height and size of bikes you ride
it goes from tiny like this ^ to some "normal" size rigs ))

This bike is a bit small, but it works well as a beater.
(also the size means my flatmate can use it too- its the grocery bike!)
I ride around a 55 normally.
Might change the saddle also at some point.

On the cards, couldn't fit it in around torrential downpours today though.

Would definitely be interested, but I don't know the clamp size yet. Is it clamp or braze-on? Also, what year 105 (aiming for all 5600 era if possible)?

I can offer you a complete ultegra groupset from the same era? braze on front mech, triple.

why not drill bars, poke cable through, use tweezers to catch it, pull out near stem, sorted.

I know the safety of drilling has been discussed but i would advise against drilling the bars especially anywhere close to the stem. Aluminium bars fatigue over time anyway and I've seen a few bars simply snap off at the stem. It wold seem mad to weaken this area.

Nearly there.....

Shorter Lo-Pro with Campag Sprints and a mix of campag, suntour, shimano & Modolo

Love this.

I think I'm going to buy some drops and bars for my leader...

Drops are bars? Drop bars, or do you mean drops with hoods?

i do mean drops and hoods/levers yes

Drops

i do mean drops and hoods/levers yes
