Sorry Wools, funding is slowing her down at the moment.

I should have the chainset and most of the groupset by the middle of April, the remaining items will be bought at the end of April, I will be broke beyond belief but very very happy.

The TT frame seems to be more aero, and it gives the options of being fixed or geared.

Hmmm.. If I'm not mistaken, all of us either have citizenship or are in the process of getting it. You may be right.

I'll trade you next year. You can have my Britishness for a small amount of your Canada knowledge.

Cool. 3 more weeks and I can join you....Or are you planning on extending that to No North Americans

North American-ist...

this had a purple velocity on the back but it's been loaned to someone from my group, turns out he wants to keep it now so i need a new rear wheel (the one on it is from my condor)

what do we think? white rim/white tyre? black H&sons black tyre? get the purple one back?

Nearly finished, just need pedals, brake/lever, and the balls to actually cut the fork!

get purple one back - all black bike = black bike. black bike + purple wheel = bruiser bike.

Nice - i would have personally gone for silver/vintage styled rims - still, nice clean build.

needs a clean-up and rear tub fixed. not sure if i will keep as dent in top tube bigger than expected (if you are interested PM though). will keep all vintage bits on it. very very light, nice lugs, original.

would it be sacriledge to put a yellow rear deep V and a baby blue front aerospoke on that, with a bananaman pendant dangling from the saddle?

Beater build, just waiting on a new saddle.

Go on, Dale... You know you want to...

I was tempted by low profile silver rims, but I just had to have a pair of deep Vs.
