well people kept dibsing then not having the money, and i just put it up and waited for someone to msg me and send the cash so i could send it, i guess cos it's so nice i haven't pushed the sale/advertised it much, but it seems a shame to be just here on a shelf! @joehoughton, there are no actual dibs on it at the moment (it's too small for everyone that wanted it)
p.s. it's in manchester so it's + postage unless you can collect x

Too Funny,
I tried to bid on the frame when it was on Ebay, Although Nes did say she would check on shipping she never released it for sale to the US. I tried bidding four times but the auction ended with no sale. -

taking mine to LA in a few months.
This reminds me: a few months ago i was standing in Oxford Street with me bike parked next to me. An old chap probably in mid 70s stops and says that he used to race here and had pongo build his bikes. was too smashed to remember the name (probably the only time i regret it). we had a nice ten min chat and then off he went. leg -

how many aende frames can we guess exist?

Can't be many - though I'm always surprised they come up as often as they do there are as many as there are given it was a one man shop that Pongo was running.
I've got an ebay search saved on them - I'd say there's been no more than 10 - 12 come up the past year (I think this one and Rau's included).

How true is this?

^Will I be allowed to take mine to Aus? Just for a holiday? Should I have stated it on my visa application?

taking mine to LA in a few months.
Now I'm concerned the Pongo Police will be after me if I ever get anyone to send me one of his track frames.
What ever you do don't bring it to LA. That'll make three.

alriiiiight...who else
I have two road frames, one I just picked up mainly because the local guy who bought it from Hilary really didn't know much about Pongo. The other I bought new many years ago.
Now if anyone has a decent track frame they want to sell?
21"" would be great
