Current Projects chat and miscellany

Remind me of this Viva;

Get road drops because track drops on the road is silly?

After seeing your set up, I still say risers.
Or, as has been stated, road bars for the road.

What's the cheapest eccentric bb that will last for a winter? I've got a Dawes Ultra galaxy frame in the bike cupboard that will eventually get made into a geared tourer but at the moment I don't have the funds so want to build it up as a fat tyred fixed gear with bits I have lying around.

The ultimate forum ex-n00b giving advice to the newest n00bs about what's silly

Ben, if you wanted to try some bars with a shallower drop I've got some of the older, anatomic shaped deda piegas you can have for the price of postage or you can grab them off me next time you're in Leeds if you'd like!

@jetski love this build .is the front rack part of the bike and what bars are those please?

I'm flattered if you think this is me and not Scoble...

How do I tyre?

Scoble... tyre

forum gold

fuck, I sort of accidentally won this.

I haven't collected it yet but does anyone want it if I decide I don't?

one does not simply (accidentally) wins a Serotta ..

clearly 'one' over here does

anyhow, it's not really a practical winter commuter, so I'm going to go get it today or tomorrow, if it doesn't fit me then it'll be up for sale for the amount I paid on the 'bay. PM me if anyone's interested

Odd shape to it, very short and tall.

That's the only model of Serotta I ever see for sale on Craigslist. Headtube for days.

yes, might work for me, but I have a terrible feeling it'll be too large and too mamil and I'll have to sell it on.

Someone tell me I didn't pay too much for it...

It looks like I am getting a CAAD10 ..

you are SUCH a buyer christ

Would be great mate! Unless you're touring near Norwich soon?

It's perfect for me, stack of 600mm, and reach of 381mm, almost as if it were custom made for me...

@roboto nah forks are fine. Must be that picture

You're just jealous cause I'm stackalicious.

It'd fit me pretty well too, but after my current timewaster I'm done on bike acquisition for a while. Plus it is a bit tooo mamil, really.
