"dublinkevspin" - no end to the comedy in the tags...

(spot on though, admittedly)

Ouch, Daniel Moggi (from Dortmund), snapped his fork while playing, could have been nasty...

Has anyone shown this to Yorgo yet? It'd fit him great!

smoking kills.

Scotty's Mielec polo beast.

Who's Scotty and what's Mielec? That thing looks fucking amazing!

What Cam said

Scott aka Rincewind.

Mielec is a small Polish company who made a group buy of frames for some people of the forum.

Cheap, a little ugly, but mostly cheap.

Cheap indeed, Scott got them to do his own geometry.

Was Scott's much more expensive than those of the group buy?

I don't think so.

pssshhtt! I was gonna wait til it was finished!

I certainly wernt going to share my secrets either.

Its got some gussets to be added and painting to be done yet.

but yeah, it was 153GBP posted. gonna be well sick.

Why didn't you just design the gussets into the original build?

hmm?

I don't think he has it yet.

looks crazy good.

oh yah, I dont have it yet. I asked them to cancel the painting, so should get it sooner I hope.

@Rincewind, can you let us all know the details of how much the frame was and how good quality it is?

Looks like there could be an influx of Polish frames.
