  • i know about that;)

  • New Zen, black Ti chainring bolts and a good chain soaking/clean. Handlebars have been swapped to Envy high rise carbon and bar a couple of bolts needing swapped to black Ti it’s pretty much there. For now ;)

  • Drive chain getting a clean. Have been using some ceramic lube oil which is an ABSOLUTE nightmare to remove especially from the chain. Never again! Think a new chain is due next year.

  • update on chub hub? still holding up?

  • Hey mate. Aye it's been absolutely faultless. Hub holding strong, wheel running straight and true even after a good few years of getting hammered. Currently on my third set of bearing and this time they're ceramic so will see how long they last. Can't really claim they ride any better than SS especially considering the cost..
    Hope you're well sir!

  • Few upgrades/changes. Currently my only road going track bike and planning to keep it that way for a while.. hence a bit of spoiling the V1 won’t go amiss ;)

  • The pink seems like a really good idea, when will it all be coming together?

  • Still one of the finest tings

  • Really fancy a pink Chris king for mine too.

  • Cheers folks. Waiting for the frame to thoroughly dry out then going to JP Weigle framesave it. It doesn't have any drain holes in it so all water just sumps in the tubes hence it needs a good coating! Should be coming together in a week or so once it's all dry and sorted.
    @konastab01 aye the CK pink is beautiful. Think I have an NOS one in the lockup somewhere but I doubt I'd be able to find it easily..

  • I can't believe that with your set of bikes, this is how you service them

  • Ah yes I'd love a workshop, a stand and some nicely laid out tools.. I move every year and have done for the past 12years with limited space for bikes and working. Tools are all bike(s) specific, all high quality/top end and the bikes don't suffer for it. One day though I'll have a proepr man cave.. T

  • Phwoar..

  • Going to be nice this !

  • Oh my! Very envious!

  • Thanks chaps. Thought I'd go for something a bit special. Can't buy Zipp rims on their own so have to go all out ;) Just need a PW lockring tool but don't feel the need to spend £50 on one... Will probably just use the DA lockring in the meantime.. T

  • What are you gonna do with the hub?

  • Sell it with the spokes, no need for it otherwise. You interested ;)?

  • Want yes, afford no
