  Yeah Rik, why don't you spend less time hanging around Brick Lane during the week and go back to art school you skinny jeaned, anorexic, ironic hair-cut, airbrushed wolf-shirt, Surrey rich kid.

  I think I found a photo of him.

  Hi,
  As Ive just built an old Carlton single speed I thought it would be good to sign up.
  Hopefully to share any knowledge about bike building and expand it too.

  Hey mate. Welcome. I'm new as well and just posted up some flix of my Carlton. Would be good to see some pix.

  Nothing to do with what's acceptable now and the like, just the general notion that moustache bar are much more suited than a riser.

  I agree with you, but unfortunately for us, risers on track bikes are not a la mode.

  are risers not hip any more?

  are moustache bars the new risers now?

  What happens if I put moustache bars on it and in a few months time, moustache bars are not "a la mode"!

  If dudes start fitting old dragster bars to track bikes should I start doing it too.

  the bars, are the bars, are the bars, and they work just fine.

  There will be some drops going on at some stage but there's no rush.
