You sleepy archangels?
Although its only midnight, perhaps you might be able to convince us of your excellent personal taste by posting a few pics of your own rides.
Look forward

I should also have added:-
- Do you want to keep it totally original or is adding modern upgraded parts acceptable.

In my opinion the most important considerations when building up a bike are (in no particular order):-
- Will it fit you
- How fast do you want to go
- How does it look (personal taste all important)
- How much do you want to spend
- What will you actually use it for (if you want to hang your build on the wall rather than use it then ignore almost everything I have said)
Thus this guy is not an idiot. His Rotrax frame is beautiful in the extreme and he probably has a very good reason for fitting the coaster brake.
I've just finished a total rebuild of a 1933 Raleigh No29 path racer. I used a SC2 Sturmey rear hub sothat I can use it without brake or gear cables spoiling the look. I have, of course kept all the original bits.
Am I also an idiot?
Best Regards,

Thats a shame.
I am looking for a 55cm (though might have gone up as far as 56).
Great frame - good luck.

So no brake drillings then?
Could you also post a pic of the steerer repair?
Many thanks,

Hi,
Could you please post a pis of the fork crown?
Thanks
Eric
Yeah,
Nice project Archangels,
But some of us like vintage/classic.
You see to my mind yours is something that I could buy from a shop. No pedigree, no class.
