Dolan!!! Frame

Lot of people used pompinos and still do. They're not ideal but do make a reasonable first polo bike. If you do go down that road get one a size too small.
-
• #6879
But not a small one.
-
• #6880
Any recommendations on forks that can make pomps handle a bit better?
-
• #6881
For polo, Wicksie? Kona P2 maybe ?
-
• #6882
Which length?
-
• #6883
Yeah, for Margs. Doesn't want a new bike but does want better handling.
Basically less rake? -
• #6884
Less rake = shorter wheelbase but more trail.
In general, more trail = less twitchy.
-
• #6885
just put single speed in ebay bikes category. something small wheelbase and tough looking.
-
• #6886
Or buy your tall bike.

Is this oscar? If so we can talk next Wednesday.
-
• #6888
good point. I have enough stuff to build it to a full bike, would still be under 3ton for a full bike easy.
are you over 6ft and want a sweet custom milec polo frame?

Hey peeps, my handlebars on my road bike got stolen for the second time last night. Bars, stem and shimano 105 10 speed shifters.
Anyone have any of those or compatible shifters for sale? @punkture @citygent @snoops @JonoMarshall @atsushi @lightbluejosh @IdealStandard
Thanks! -

Ahh balls, I'm sorry to hear that Zoe. I had my Nitto's stolen off my track bike last month.
I am actually awaiting delivery of 100 (minimum qty) torx stem bolts in black. I was gonna bag up the ones I'm not using (I need between 30 and 40 for my bikes) and bay them.
Obvs polo people can just give me a few quid if they wanna add some theft deterrent to their bikes! I'll let this thread know when they arrive form the states.

OH! and if nobody else has anything to sell you, you have small paws, and don't care about being aero, may I suggest the Shimano ST-R600 for your replacements?
They don't look particularly fancy (theft deterrent again?) but have Ultegra-level inner workings and are more ergo for small handed people.

Where did this happen? Karoline's got robbed on Columbia rd on Tuesday - took all the same bits, also took the wheels off and just left them beside the bike :/

Hi there,
I am very interested in the bike but have on question.
What is the weight of the frame?
Thanks
Oscar
Dolan is on trend and pretty cheap but you'll probably have to keep an eye on the classifieds and eBay to find something cheap and easy to convert.
