Also I'll be buying a (probably super sketchy) Chinese carbon fork if anybody's wondering about that

Which forks ya going for? It'd be interesting to see what's available.
Who is the main distributor of Alpina in the UK? We might get a small discount for 10 sets of forks?

I'm very much iterested but I'm not in London or even the UK, is that going to be a problem?

I'd really like a Mash style / size M / wishbone / smooth welds / RAL 4010

Where are you based? I don't think anywhere in Europe would present a big problem.

I'm in the Netherlands so they can just chuck mine out on the way from poland to london without even having to stop ;)

Which forks ya going for?

whatever is cheapest on ebay

I know this isn't the answer you were after, I just thought I'd mention cheap China carbon in case anyone hadn't thought of that. I don't have much regard for my safety tho, but less than £50 for the fork seems in keeping with the spirit of this thing.

my friend from krakow ordered mash copy from them, here's how it looks like.
you gotta be careful with those gals, they are quite famous for their fuckups (wrong geometry, different from what you ordered. they managed somehow to mess up orders, and brown frame pictured above got swapped in shipping with integrated seatpost-polished welds-integrated headset-unpainted frame.they covered posting costs, but still there was about week delay in completion of a bike).so once you order anything from them make sure every detail is fine.

Is the plan to order all the same, with wishbones only? I'm more interested in a straight Mash copy with bridge.

what are we thinking about customs on importing these things in bulk?
No charges within EU.

Looking at the cost of finishing a build out here, it's enough to make you vomit. Fuck you, Japan. I may have to think this over...

Even at a crazy low price and overtime pay, bank and budget for cross check parts means I'm out until the new year.

If it helps, a better visual representation of the RAL colour chart...

Sent over a few more questions with regard to the pricing, to keep costs down i think we're better sticking with standard 1 1/8 headsets, i asked if we were to order around 10 would he be able to throw in the clean welds... we'll see...

I should mention i'm not in london atm, But it's only a tenner on the coach to get back so shouldn't be a problem hopefully. Probably cheaper than posting almost

The triple triangle frame in Rogan's initial post does not have a a curved seat tube.
Does anyone has a picture of one built up and also the geometry for it?

Cheers
