Concorde would be nicer with white saddle & tape, black cable, bar end lever and destickered wheels IMO

Also, the bar angle is a little jaunty.

Almost there.

So I've been riding mine for a few months now, and just wondered about putting a 700c fork up front? Any thoughts/suggestions? I dunno much about stress points on the frame and if it might make a big structural difference? Thanks guys!

it will also fuck up the geometry and make it handle like shit. why would you want to put a 700c up front?

just wondered about putting a 700c fork up front?

I was just curious if it was possible, although I was pretty sure that's what would happen. And I was just wondering cause I saw summit a while back about a lo pro with different forks.

Think I'll stick with my 650 Concorde forks lol

think i'll stick with my 650 concorde forks lol

pics!

It's not liking my IPhone photos and I don't have a camera -_- ill put some up soon as I can!

just don't do it.

if anyone needs 650c tires, i have a batch of Vittoria Rubino pro 3 (150 TPI) clinchers. 10 quid each. They go for about 25 usually. Have about 16 left.

If some of you get together and buy all of them in one go, you can save on postage and they will be 8 quid each.

this thread is so full of win, I have a 650c front wheel+tub just waiting for me to match it with a low pro frame + EVERYTHING ELSE :')

I was in need of a new project a couple of months ago and hankering for a pursuit type lo-pro frame. Well, an LBS had a Rossin pursuit for sale as a complete bike, with an absolutely and indescribable hideous setup (700c hybrid fork with a cantibrake, cheapo cranks and SS-converted road wheels). After the sad thing had been gathering dust on the shop window for a while I decided to rescue it. Here's the "original" condition I bought it in:

The frame itself is really nice with pearl white colour. Columbus EL-OS tubes with smooth fillet-brazed joints. I've got all the parts for it except a vintage bullhorn already. Too bad about winter and everything, wish I could ride it already.

Props for rescueing this! God it looked awful.

Name and shame the shop plz

^Somewhere in Sweden IIRC..

that frame looks like it should have a 650 front ? the front fork and head tube angle look " off "

Yes, but there is not enough space here (the internet) to list all it's problems.
