Newcastle name & face to bike

Looks lush andy ! Get it finished !

should be done by wednesday, putting the stem, bars, cranks and saddle from my orange track bike on, changing the chainring to 52 and running a 19t cog (72GI, 19 skid patches) although in retrospect i should've gone for an 18t (76ish GI 9 skid patches) but it was stupid o'clock in the morning and i didn't realize i hadn't changed the wheel size from 27" to 700x23c so i thought 52:19 would give me 74 GI.

got a headset and some other bits on order too!

classssssssss ! Can't wait to see pics !

btw is that a 650 on the front ? They look the same but I'm sure you said you needed to run a 650 on it ?!

it is a 650 front 700 rear, the front just looks larger than it is as it has a tyre on it while the back doesn't.

pics or it didnt happen

the most practical, she is not. rather specifically beautiful? i think so, yes.

Absolutely lush.

Biiiiig riiinng !!!! Mint.

insane frame, not sure about the handle bars tho

it's a pursuit frame with pursuit bars on. . .
hardly going to put drops on it am i.

touchy...its a lovely bike, i was just saying im not a fan of the pursuit bars. btw i think you meant aesthetically beautiful not specifically.

au contraire, it's a stupid in joke.

but yeah, everyone hates the bars, lol.

Haha those bars keep on causing ruckus haha, I love 'em

Nicely done.

I like the bars.

im into the bars!

which wheelset/ rims are those?

mavic cxp14s on condor uno hubs.

i've had to put risers on the lo-pro for now as the stem in those pictures has died and i cant be arsed retaping them just to change stem - still fun to ride though!

How the fuck did you manage to kill the stem? I'll bring my bars and stem to polo on weds if you want to try them for size. We can maybe do a special price if it will mean pursuit bars on that frame again, it deserves them.

threaded the bolt hole. was loose, tightening away and then SNAP. bugger.

So you just need the bolt? Might have one knocking about

nah, the bolt hole threaded. removed the bolt along with a lovely spring of stripped thready :'(

Whatever the solution, someone gotta help the man get RISERS off his lo-pro !

What you after, a stem ? I've got a couple quills lying around I think

I'm trying Marc! Just as long as I don't have to see it that way.

got myself a set of airwings on an ahead stem and a quill to ahead stem adapter on the way, not exactly era correct but i cant say i give much of a fuck.

Aye, fuck it, that'll dee !!

are there not many fixed ladies in newcastle like? based in london normally but newcastle is home, would be nice to see some anti hybrid girl's bikes! :)
