Bike Mielec

The spreadsheet looks good - I've added the roundup function on the total so we don't mess around with pennies.

1000archangels, could you please check how much the group discount will be so we can start gathering the money?

Most of us are above the £120 mark so the group discount would be much appreciated...

Also, I will need Mielec payment details once the order is finalised so I can send all the money along with the order.

Cheers

Vince

iirc the group discount is already applied

Vince, you're now the only one able to edit the spreadsheet.

Everybody else still has access to the table.
If you want to change something, let me know and I'll oblige.

I'm all set to pay now, let us know when we can start sending the moneys.

hi everyone,

i'm the happy owner of this bike
And also the blue one with ungloriousbastard graph in background
I'm very surprised to find my bike in your forum when i was search for other Mielec frames worldwide ^^
Will keep an eye on this post for sure

Hi PJ,

I linked to the photos of Mielec bikes from pignonfixe.com as a lot of people here became interested in these bikes (after seeing Kredi's "LAW///" bike) and wanted to see more exemple of built bikes. Great to see you here, your bikes are very nice indeed.

Hey Private! Tu serais pas Bordelais par hazard?

Welcome to the forums!
I'm basically copying your setup, did you just ask for lower seatstays or you had to specify the height precisely?

Si si completement pourquoi ?

One advice for a custom frame, do not "copy" a geo or a setup...
Try to make you own bike !

I say that cause since i've post my different bikes in pf.com, i have received a lot of private message with people who ask me a lot of questions to copying my differents setups... Some of them even tell me that they will make the same wheelset etc etc... And i'm just fed up with this and seeing some person order exactly the same fram with the same tubing etc etc

To answer:

I had specified the exact height, i'm doing my own geometry

Anyway i'm trying to get a job in London (starting from end of december) because i love this city, i will certainly take some of my bikes with me (1 or 2 firstly) and hope to seen the London FG community.

Anybody know about accessible Velodrome in or near London and how about a license ?

The 33 was the clue...
Not copying your geo, just ordering something similar in terms of looks, apart from paint, size, wheelset that is... Just copying the lowered seat stays actually...

Check out this site for info on Herne Hill.

This thread is also worth a look.

I think I'm going to go with the mash copy, and then next year look at a custom geometry. I suspect it'd come out very similar to rak500's though!

I changed mine though, many times, it's now raw, no IHS, clearcoat, lowered seatstays...
This group order doesn't allow for very diverse designs I guess.

^^ pretty sure the idea of a group order is for similar frames to be purchased so that there is little change between tubing and rigs used

It's the lowered stays that I like :)

Yes, I get the point. I guess I was thinking "out loud" as I've been pondering what to do over the last week.

I just want to finalise sizing and colour, when are submitting the final spreadsheet for the order?

can we say cutout date would be wednesday next week? is everybody happy with that?

sounds good to me! As in payment due before then?

yes. But I dont want to be the one setting the limits deadlines as I am only the middle-man not even a buyer, it would be good to hear from the others.

Hadn't put myself on either list yet but I get paid on Tuesday...

Any Manchester orders yet? (excluding custom ones)

Yo

Cool, depending on your plans we could split the cost of a courier/ParcelFarce etc. Otherwise I might be in London's Famous London at the end of November.

Agreed!

Let's do this by Wednesday 24th October - noon.

Then place the order the same day and transfer the cash so we get the frames back by the end of November.

That's good, I get paid midnight Wednesday morning, so perfect timing!

Anyone who wants a cheap carbon fork for their cheap Alu frame?

You should be able to strip the graphics off them.

so we're paypaling Vince then?
