For Sale: My Beautiful Borghini 54cm Fixed Gear build

Pengy was running 650's, so if you did that to this then I am sure you could mount the pump in the same location.

Wow. Thats one ugly bike.

You could probably mount one on there now - not the tightest of clearances.

I remember not so long ago when you posted this in the Riders, Bikes and Faces thread, all proud as punch, and then got some pelters about toe-clips or whatever offence it was you'd committed. How quickly they grow up!

Do people really go and spaff over a grand on a 'build' at BLB or wherever and then not really ride it? Honestly. Young people. * goes back to knitting*

I seem to have this hard to understand attraction to Aerospokes.

I know they are crap and I still want one.

Meh. Possible 'Spok dibs.

join ussssssss...

split it up and sell me the cranks please

I'll take first dibs on the cranks please

I wouldn't see it as a loss- most of them are rubbish.

As a massive racist I want a white one, which would then get repainted with the frame and fork to further my penguin design.

50p for the Knog light. I can use it for my secret Xmas tree.

[My lady and I are of different religions, and I don't want to offend her]

Xmas tree in the secret cupboard FTW.

:)

Surely a xams tree doesn't have religious connotations?

Maybe the star/angel does but I bet the tree is some pagan thing....

runs off to wikipedia

just having the word 'christmas' in the name gives it a religious connotation, regardless of it's possibly pagan roots..

Good point, well made.

My missus demands on covering the tree with Norwegian flags. I respond by following one my English traditions of drinking too much in the afternoon, and throwing up in the trifle.

split it up and sell me the cranks please

(re-post)

cranks

you sure?

I take it back completely - that will be perfect with the geek!
