Bike Mielec

sram s300s give you a 42mm chainline, but are 130bcd. they are basically a road crank but the tabs are machined differently :-) it is not possible to mount a ring on what would be the front.

Bike build done!
Ceramic BB and Omniums on mine.
Hambar is going to upload the time lapse video of the builds.

Is that the £40 ceramic BB off eBay?

Looking at the spline pattern it looks like an Enduro Zero.

Enduro zero, spot on.

So Vince came round and we actually got the bikes built tonight, we also managed to do the time lapse...

both look awesome and looks like an evening well spent! look forward to proper pics

which bike stand are you using? looks proper.

got the weirdest look from my flatmate while watching that in the kitchen

In my head, Vince was at least 10 years older...

this is so good!
well done chaps

^^ same tm

'm still a spring chicken!
I will start a current project thread with all the parts weight and so on.
Also a comparison one for real / fake 3T Funda forks.
In the meantime:

The pink colour match is nowhere near as horrible as I'd imagined.

The pink colour match is every bit as horrible as I'd imagined.

worse

Yeah. Brakeless with black grips and tyres and I'd ride that.

desticker rear wheel, loose break, black velosolo ring, gators and go.

I like the gips. maybe.

Jewsef may have been confused by all that, so to conclude.

like I said at the start for a track chainline you need 103,
those cranks are just road, inner tab or not.
you can still use a 107 or 110 or something in between fine (3mm off is hardly silly is it?)

3mm on a 36cm chain stay with a 1/8" chain could be noisy and wear one side of the ring and sprocket and both inside faces of the chain quicker.

Had a quick go at getting mine sort of built up. Looking ok so far, definitely needs new forks, I got the ones on there at the moment months ago, not realising just how huge the crown is, a good cm sticking out the whole way round (still they were really cheap so not much lost) or that it'd be loads of effort to get the white decals off. I might also need to trim the seat post down a bit (or trade for a shorter one) because that's as far in as it will go and it seems like it might be just a bit too high. The clearance at the back looks pretty good, I reckon I could get a 28c gatorskin in there no problem. It's definitely fully black, not the midnight blue I specified but I'm not worried, I think it looks pretty good anyway. I just need to wait for the bottom bracket and headset to arrive so I can finish it!

Oh yeah it's a small mash copy with smooth welds and wishbone stay.

Depends on how much it'd cost but it might be worth reamed further by your lbs.

Without a tan^-1 function, I think that's about 5 degrees of deviation which sounds like a lot.

i found the same problems, still looking for a new fork but the one thats on rides fine even if it looks ridiculous

For the price I paid for the fork it's probably not worth it to be honest. A set of drilled alpinas would be great but I know I'll fuck it up if I try myself.

^i think he meant the seattube:)
