yes man, alow it

you don't coast down fuck off descents on your track bike though

Nor on your road bike either! Pedal up and pedal down!

yes man, alow it

haha woops.
im tired.

That LDC looks like it was probably designed for double 700c

Naaa it wasn't.
It'd bring the BB up too high.

^ this because look at the head tube angle and rake of the fork. Also the obvious fact of the clearances on the front fork, assuming it is original fork.

reminds me of this classic from the archives:

Yes, they are both red.

Stop being so sassy Tom

Yes, they are both have a tt protector.

nothing more.

The DR is a seriously light frame. love the forks and seat tube cluster.

You, GTFO my thread.

good way to get nerged up in here

Hip hop thread ain't nuttin to fuck with.

Ah it's your ex no?

Si senior. Now belongs to a friend of mine here. I kept te 950 tho :)

How's Argos coming along?

Built it up with 10 speed Campag and my Chinese crabon tubs - awesome. BB and seatpost are properly seized though - the owner before Dae didn't appear to own any grease - stem, headset and cranks were completely dry when removed. It's off to Armourtex in the morning. Hope they can save the paint, because Argos have quoted me £250 to replicate it...

Mark is that Dave 753 and was it always a track frame?

I know. Saffron frameworks down the road is the other option, but might be much more expensive.

753 yes. And it is funny you ask only because it was always a right mutha to change the rear wheel. The bridge basically wouldn't allow the bak wheel much further forward in the track ends than what you see in the pic. So as soon as you loosened off the rear wheel nuts and turned the cranks to remove chain the wheel would always jam itself on to the bridge. A 700 wheel could never be slammed.

What made you ask?

Have you given a proper go with a vice? warmth/cold, penetrating lube etc....

and loads of leverage on the BB...

753 yes. And it is funny you ask only because it was always a right mutha to change the rear wheel. The bridge basically wouldn't allow the bak wheel much further forward in the track ends than what you see in the pic.

My Dave Russell is 753, has what looks to be identical fastback stays, is pretty lightweight and used to be a TT frame, it is missing the original fork and instead has a gazelle track fork.
