Aus built M.H Jones track

Ooooh, love that frame 🥰

Let him/her know there's a missing crank bolt ;)

The lockup is only accessible with an employee badge which has to be marked for that specific lockup. But still, quite daft.

Sick, never seen a RIH in max tubing

I only found this abomination on the internet, frame looks identical but the white one does have max forks.

This is amazing, aside from the lack of locking up. As Heldring said, never saw a max Rih. He made wide variety of stuff for the track though, so I'm not surprised he did something with max as well. Unfortunately most his builds are custum or one-off, so quite rare in most occassions. Max seems like a top tube set for track racing in those days, wish I had the chance to ride one on the track for taining.

Found this online btw

Not locked. No brake. No foot retention. Dangerous stuff.
Interesting frame though!

Unfortunately while taking off some 'surface rust' with a wire brush tool on a cordless drill it seems things went a bit deeper than I realised.

So I think that's this frame going in the scrapheap after several hours work stripping the paint.

Got this old thing out of the barn today. So glad I couldn’t take myself to sell it when I left London :-)

The ultimate pub bike?

The world's most weirdly proportioned Pre Cursa. An almost completely parts bin build, aside from the frameset which I bought cheap as chips.

Not that weird! most pre-cursas were built like that until a few years ago.

Mine certainly had a BMX stem at one point pukes

Oh really? The seat tube is so long! I think it has a higher standover than my cross bike which has a high BB.

To be honest mine was probably a size too big when I had it.

I broke 4 Pre Cursas playing bike polo, great frames for the money and planning to build another just for the fun of it! #truestorybro

Haha, mine is the the right size, it’s just bloody massive compared to any other 60 I’ve ever had.

Aye, it’s a very reliable workhorse.

Spotted this one yesterday, thought it was an interesting one. Sorry for the dark picture
