Upgrades/ New Shit in Norwich

removed

I need more hours in the day - haven't ridden at all since Monday...

Have you ourchased any lights yet? :)

Or a brake?! #controversy

@jdp no

@Rikki also no...

Thanks to @thross78 for selling me some parts, that's my Condor SS:

Still need to adjust the saddle and bars.

And that's my new old ugly duck - Giant CFR-2 (carbon f&f and full 105):

Looking good Tomas - how does the Condor ride with the new shoter stem?

Much better than before, thanks! My fit has definitely been improved by this stem together with the short&shallow drops. But if I keep the Giant for myself, I may go back to fixed and risers on Condor.

Loving the Condor, always liked their bikes...

You really need to sort the bar/lever position out there

That giant! <3

I keep fancying a colour change....how about UPS brown!?

Nope. How about Type-R red?

Would be nice!

Maybe this kinda colour?

Yeah, that'd be cool.

Or just full on post box red like this beast

I quite fancy one of those Planet X frames!!

A little birdy tells me there are some big changes coming @hudsoncjnr 's way...?

Haha, yeah @thross ...can't think where you heard that!!

New frameset on the way, Jamis will be going and parts transferred...

Plus a little project will be beginning tomorrow, will reveal more when I know what I'm going to do!

So...this is the frame for project UPS!

It's a lovely old steel frame from Caminada

I will update with a list of bits when I have it to hand!

That paint is incredible; forget UPS brown, embrace the pink rat!

Hmmm...that might change a few little bits of the build!!

I am coming round to that idea tho, especially as it was supposed to be a sensible winter bike!

Please don't go brown, that frame is beautiful.

P.S sorry for not getting back to you about those other frames, microcosm hates me and I'd kind of given up on the forum

Parts list tbc

Miche crankset
Miche BB
H+Son Archetypes

And UPS brown paint with track dropouts...or ratty pink paint and dropouts left as they are...

Although it will be cheaper to not paint and the consensus is going that way so I might leave it and embrace the pink and save the idea of a UPS bike for another build!

Where and how much is the track drops conversion mate? Quite intrigued for a possible rat when i get down to Norwich!
