The rack position has been rectified

Seriously though, why the labelled tubes?

Repped, nice one

So I got a call today from the guy I bought my Dolan Forza from. Turns out it is Graham Weigh's personal track bike, given to him as a gift from Terry Dolan and was stolen from Graham's garage early last year along with a load of tools. It has a one off paint job and the wheels where one of two sets. Graham saw the wheels on ebay and traced them back to the guy I bought them from, and it turns out they have known each other since childhood. So now I am returning the Forza to it's rightful owner and will have to use the Vigorelli for the track again (which is still a great bike).
It sucks, but at least it's not getting confiscated by the police at a later date. I want another Forza now.

^^frame looks nice, but brakes are a bit too fat in relation to the tubes, also the orange stem and the position of the levers looking out of place

^^

That's a really shit situation Sumo, sorry to hear.

Will you be out of pocket as a result or will there be refund options?

I will be refunded by the guy I bought it from luckily.

^^ what a strange series of events!

vig is rad though.

Did you cut the steerer yet?

csb sumo. So someone, Graham knew from childhood, burgled him and sold it on ebay?

no, someone burgled him. Childhood friend buys it for a good price to flip, Graham recognises the wheels on ebay and gets in touch.

Did you cut the steerer yet?

no, maybe if I had Graham couldn't use it anymore...

cut it!!! he might let you keep it....

The shimergo setup works surprisingly good. No adaptors or stuff like that. Yes bad picture but oh well ...
