a very good point Hen.

krusty... that bike is a stunner.

Thanks. The frame is a '99 Nagasawa, with no sparkles in the paint (unusual)
Wheels are Phil hubs with Campy Omega V rims and Vittoria tubs
Crank and seatpost are Dura Ace
Saddle is 5-Gold suede (Kashimax)
Stem and bars are Nitto (Pearl stem and B125aa bars)

All classic and practical. I bet it's a sweet ride.

It actually makes me want to get on the track and use my bike as it was intended (for a change).

And even if they have a bible, who keeps it on their project chair?

I give you Ludwig the bible basher.

krusty, thats really sweet man, job well done

Picked this one up last week. The build will be delayed a bit while my wife gets used to the idea of yet another bike.

sell that to me immediately. absolutely delicious.

Gorgeous

pretty nice NJS frame and your bike
all are NJS, great man.

deep carpet!

or sharp drop outs

Todd, as has been said already - that is some bike, and then some. ride as is. am just putting anatomic bars on my pinar - part out of necessity, part of curiosity - will see how they feel.

I just love the idea these bikes are getting ridden. reckon on there being a fair number of us putting in a decent geared ride soon, speaking to shins, shoots, plagiarist, to name but a few recently

Arrrrgh! The BB is stuck in my Fluro Raliegh. Getting it cut out but wont be ready till Monday, I wanted to ride it this weekend :(

Stupid old crappy steel frame bollox! Get a new bike etc.

Rant over.

what you doing with that black beater frame you had Dunc?

Still... it's worth it for that paintjob ;)

My first build. I say 'build', I bought most of it whole and only needed a few other bits. Yes, it's horrifically ugly. Yes, the back wheel isn't my first choice of colour.

However, it took me 24hours to go from no bike, to bike, on a crazy small budget.

Not bad first build on a budget. Please put some clips and straps on though...

some of you might recognise this..

gonna do it up porter bike stylee. it weighs a ton so might as well make a workbike out of it for my wife; front rack and/or basket, swept back bars, mudguards. trying to keep in a sensible budget, so looking for as much preloved shiny components as poss.. advice welcomed :)

off to armourtex with it.. cream, blue, red

ps - thanks skully!

You'll have to take the brake off though if you wanna go 'on the planks'

About a 1 minute job with clamp on lever.

Don't forget to sell it in a couple weeks time!

What chain line do you get with those DA road cranks?
