  • Also, I actually tapered the size of the squares on the fork so they got smaller and smaller as the fork got thinner and thinner so that they wouldn't run into each other haha! :D may have gotten a little delirious after a while!

  • It had two coats of acrylic finishing varnish on top of that too to make it nice and glossy and to protect it. That part was scary as I was so scared that I was going to screw up the varnish and irreversibly ruin the paint job!

  • Hey All,

    This is me, Davey, looking like some kind of tintin character-

    And this is the new bike-

    Had it a whole 3 weeks now and love the thing. Currently looking to upgrade the Crankset, bottom bracket, seat and handlebar stem (any pointers, or if any of you fine bunch are selling any of these items just hola).

    Looking forward to chat with you chaps and hooking up for a ride.

    Davey

  • Nice Andrew! Up hill bunny hops in deep snow over mud yep.

    (you found a anyone interested in that bmx i mentioned)

  • That looks like good fun.

  • I'll get a better photo soon.

    Got some Mud2s for muddy action - also got some eggbeaters to go on. Bit gutted it's so icy - really want to get out on a proper ride.

  • New cranks on the cx replacement.

  • Bought the bars and shifters together and they were already wrapped.

    I wouldn't mind some nice black fizik tape but apart from the shit colour, it's actually pretty nice tape and I can't be arsed spending more cash. Weirdly enough, quite a few people say they like it - fuck knows why, it looks rank!

  • Goodbye Plug, Hello Dream Machine.

  • Wasn't expecting ^^^ at all. Looks like a really fun, comfy ride and i'm really into those bars.

    I love that you've gone from fast fast fast spok racer to lazy sunday quayside cruiser.

  • Its called getting old and acting your age...

  • The fact that I remember that album coming out proves my point...
