No thread bumping without new pics! :p

no updates on here? Ryan showed me pictures today!

Aren't you're a royal cunt as I've not seen any photos since last week, either way I've finally paid up, and Ryan a couple days ago said he's finished with the hot work and now cleaning it up...

.

This page is useless without pics

^ This.

I get excited when I see unread posts on this thread. Come to visit and there isn't any pictures or updates :(

taped my bars today in double layer of Velox black cotton tape. same as newbaums to be perfectly honest.

Good to know for the future (it's much cheaper), but I wanted brown tape for the Bob anyway.

comes in brown

Brown look similar, think they're not 100% the same, but if I'm going for a plain colour, I'd go for Velox.

Velox bar end plugs however, are fantastic.

Just saw the photo, fuuuu... etc.

Oh, didn't see that. Was looking on Ribble, they only have black/red/white/yellow/blue.

Ed - PIX, MAN.

Fuckin' A, I love me some wrap-around.

That's definitely something different for sure.

Ryan's Facebook show a huge amount of skill and effort being put in making those wrap around seat stay, now thinking that he's undercharging himself...

Last one, I promise.

^thats the one I saw yesterday. such porn.

Undercharging himself may well be a good step on the way to making a decent profit. :)

Those stays are especially pornographic.

Stunning

Pretty sure Rourke use different method for the wrapover?

Rourke have their own style rather, the method I think are similar.

Last one, I promise.

Loveeee this, I have a pointy seat tube on my longstaff, but this is a completely new level!

Finally getting there, this is very exciting!

Nice but dont seem good engineering wise, and how do they get the chrome on then paint on a brazed part? chrome a big bit then mask?

You could say the same of polished lugs.
