holy hell. I applaud your gusto. Should definitely be interesting. That said, some frames, I just don't understand. At the top of the list is the Slingshot. This is up there.

I saw this on eBay and it scares me. I salute you. Any idea on the tubing and what's the quality of the tacking and is it already brazed in places? I'd love a Galibier. Subbed to this. What's the plan?

Plan is to get hold of the frame then work out both, if the current brazing looks okay then I have a friend with some welding gear who I may enlist to help do any additional brazing and will try I clean up the current brazing myself.. If all looks okay then will try to get it up and running as a fixed commuter and runaround. Ideally I will add or have added a rear brake bridge.

And if anyone is looking for some brazing practice and wants to have a go on it let me know!

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:
![](https://www.google.co.uk/images/srpr/logo4w.png)
That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

> Quote text by starting lines with >

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

```

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.

If you upload more than 5 files we will display all attachments as thumbnails.
