Saarf - Nago looks sweet

thanks

Not keeping it on the wall?

Even by SRAM standards that rear dérailleur cable loop looks a bit long

this is just what Sumo said, when trolling whatsapp on my phone.

Urghh finally... just about ready for a 7am start tomorrow.

Functional and tasty

I'm watching Ed's CAAD10 touring thread with interest.

Looks nice and tidy. Did it have two sets of bars previously or is that just a weird angle?

Oh, and you have a skate ramp in your bathroom?

Agreed, that looks like fun.

Skateramp in bathroom = dream being lived.

Yeah, I built some ramps in the kitchen for my housemate's 21st.

Tape?

Not just moved on to a different thread.... but a whole other forum!

Tape?

yeh will stick some cotton tape on sometime, just need to get some plugs that fit the bullhorn ends

Why not hang the gazelle on the wall?

Surely that then only leaves two bikes which is perfectly normal. Also lets be honest the sabbath probably rides better anyway.

Monetary issues have seen my nice Ti frame sold so this lovely ex-team Gazelle is getting brought out of retirement... pity to have flogged the ti bauble but secretly a bit excited about this build-think it'll ride well even if it's a bit rough around the edges atm.

I discovered the back end was slightly twisted and have sorted that out with the aid of a chopping board and some brute force, and also treated some rust patches and started touching in the paint.

Basically going to transplant the centaur carbon group from the sabbath onto it and combine with newly built Royce/Ambrosio excellight wheels. Headset is a bit fucked so a replacement will be needed... chris king if i can find one cheep?

Small debate about quill adapter/ahead or traditional quill stem (I have a nice itm super-italia bar/stem combo that would do nicely)... the skinny tubes/forks are making me lean towards quill.

nice frame, very light and looking forward to taking it for a whizz-i think an all-black grouppo with black seat pin will look good so looking at swapping my chorus steel for a thompson or something.

That could be really, really nice built up well!

please keep us updated with pics!

cheers, will do-going to finish touching in the paint today and will then take some readers wives shots...

Fitted CK headset today onto my CdF. It's so bloody smooth! still waiting for spacers and need to chop fork down.
