This.

I have been surprised at how quickly overseas items arrive compared to UK delivery times.

Guess I'll give it a go. Bout £13 all in so not to spendy and I'm still a little way off needing them.

Found elusive BB tool and completed the Duratec.
Need to true the rear wheel before I can slam it!!! Other than that, it's just the steerer that needs to be chopped and it's done - decent photo's to follow when I get round to it

The wife hates it though - says it looks like a Kraftwerk album sleeve

Needs better forks.

I spent long thinking about buying that, so nice....

Yep, but they're pretty solid steel forks so they'll do for the time being..
It's a seriously well made frame - weld finish etc is divine

matt black Alpina!

• I'd say it definitely has.
  
• Probably, but the geo will be out and it will definitely bug you now you know about it. P'raps see about getting it jigged?
  
  

any recommendations? could this save me from tt/dt replacement if the gods are looking down on me?

excellent work.

I've put the Tir-spoke on my commuter and put the drops back on, instead of the risers. This picture also shows the real colour a bit more.

Dom v. kindly took some snaps of my DoBrodici, which recently got Alpina track forks and some custom decals courtesy of roboto

While Dom was taking photos of TS's son, I had to make do with a phone camera for the obligatory drive side shot of my currentest project;

It's a Kogswell P/R, and leads on from this thread; http://www.lfgss.com/thread50634.html .

650b non-custom rando thing, with a spacer stack to envy. Last bit to do is to make this diddy Nitto rack fit with the V brake set up;

A few more here; http://s988.photobucket.com/user/36x18/library/kogswell?page=1

Obviously a last resort, but what about mini-v? reckon there might be enough clearance to fit with the rack and mudguard?

how did you know? they're his old wheels... it must be the wheels.

@apollo: GREAT! but why not prodicy like prodigy?

^ 'bro' is kind of like 'mate' but for americanised hipsters; Kind of like a pabst version of 'fam', It has its roots in predominantly black culture but has been appropriated by the white middle class. Wear a checked shirt to a Bodeans and you will hear this address being used in the wild.

There's something quite endearing about these pics, they're really nice!

And while I'm here, finished this today.

Couldn't be happier!

So fucking nice. Can't believe Pepe sold it.

But he does have that amazing Rourke now ;)

I'm not sure which I prefer tbh. Has anyone dibs bumblebee this time round?

can I call it in case you get bored?

Lovely!

Has anyone dibs bumblebee this time round?

Yup, Pepe!
