That is my dream bike, you're a lucky, lucky guy!

Plumber's pipe cutters work really well, lovely tidy cut and can be had for less than a tenner

I also seem to have missed the joke although I work for a paint company so have access to lots of top of the range spraying equipment, special effect paints, colour matching facilities and other cool stuff.
I tend to charge £80 for a strip and single colour with decals applied under clearcoat. I'm not doing it as a business just do it in my spare time.

It's a beautiful frame but you need to get that seatpost out ASAP!
Ok, panic over, aluminum expands twice as much as steel and I'm sure the rusty (ok, oxidised) seatpost is cracking the seat tube. It's not ideal but the seat tube takes mainly compressive forces so it should be fine as long as you can get the bugger out; caustic soda works well with steel frames and seeing as carbon is inert and epoxy is not far behind it you might as well give it a go. If you leave it in there it will fail, maybe not today, maybe not tomorrow but at some point in the indertermiate future and definitely not for the rest of your life. Not quite so romantic is it?
I've come across a very rare Moulton Speedsix and need the period rear mech and cranks, seen a few people have similar bits for sale recently so just wondering if there's any kicking round their parts bin.
Also looking for a space frame Moulton APB or even better a TSR.
Cheers,
Matt
