Current Projects chat and miscellany

ha, no fear. no drilling.

Those forks will look perfect! Columbus as well so a fair match for the frame.

Hate to agree with 1ka but yeah., stripping and clear coat will look great.

looks like they're my grips!

oh shit
I sold your grips bro, sorry

I'll get you some new ones

Lol.

Tan walls for the Badman, just waiting on a Rival front mech to replace the microshit one I've made do with the past 2 years...

Also been sorting this out for the gf's dad...

just waiting on a Rival front mech

Waiting as in there's one on the way, or waiting for one to come up second hand? 31.8mm seat tube?

one is on its way as of me going to the post office in the morning! (its 34.9)

What Rogan said (:

not so much a Current Project as my only project.

Recent changes are:

new bars/stem
clipless pedals
new seatpost

next on the agenda:

some decent wheels.

thennnnnn, I will have to leave it alone for a while and focus my efforts (bank balance) on building a winter beater.

By the power of scobbless......

Dibs when you get bored.

Love the boardman. Still need one. Tan walls are sweet on it.

aye well I was only popping inside for a minute.

that was meant for laner :P

I'm pretty sure this was someone on here's.
Rather poor photo of my new Aende, taken very early in the morning following a late night rush to get it ready in time for a sportive around Box hill.
The chain snapped off about ten minutes later, removing a good portion of paint around the chainstay :( :

I'd been looking for something like this for a long time, I have one of Pongo's lo-pro's already and wanted something a little more rideable on a day to day basis.

The Record chainset on a Shimano build annoys me a bit and it might go for a paint job over the winter, but for now I think it looks pretty good.

that was meant for laner :P

oh haha. I do need to get out of the habit of leaving my bike like that though.

or maybe we have just found out something rather unexpected?

Swapped out a few bits on the Donobru... Thought it was a bit of a porker and have lost about a pound in swapping out the Jag for a de-decal'd pro chrome, dmr v8s and Restraps for aliums, and put an SLR back on (which is getting swapped again for a Flite when it arrives...)

Had been having alot of pain associated with riding clipless over the last few months. To my relief and disappointment, I think it was down to my shoe of choice. Turns out I don't really get on with Dominators... Got some new Giro's with carbon soles and better fit, which feel 1000x better... unfortunately I seem to have injured my knee a little already, but hoping for improvement with the change in shoe. Feels great being clipped in (: #sickskidz #doawheelie #rideitlikeyounickedit

Who has these hubs? Any experience? Need WW hubs on budget

Didn't realise how shit photos come out on instagram so here, this weeks work, ungrammed....

New Chirvelo R5ch done.
