lovely Bike. If you want Panto stuff for it let me know. I know a guy

If chicks scars, that makes me a supermodel lol

Thanks for the advice. I was hyped at doing something by my own hand for the first time, but my time will come. As for saving money......it just means I’ve got £40-£50 up for grabs if anyone has parts. 😂

Edit: £40-£50 more for parts 😂

I’ve heard I can do that, but I have noobie reservations.

1. Won’t bodging it in mess with wheel alignment?

2. As I’m thinking of a re-spray down the line. Wouldn’t bodging wheels in and out risk cracking paintwork?

Sorry if these are absolutely ridiculous questions, but I was always taught by my recently departed Dad, that if a job is worth doing, then do it right.

I was going to have it done for me, but being buoyed with reading about everyone else’s projects and copious amounts of tea, I’m feeling foolhardy enough to give it a bash myself.

Hi guys,

So it’s been a while, right? Sorry for no updates on the build, but tbh, there’s been nothing to report. Unfortunately life (wife and kid) got in the way. Now that I have 30hrs nursery time for mini me per week, that “should” free up some much needed bike credits and time to spend them.

The plan is to now have my 126mm rear stays respaced to 130mm to accommodate a modern 10sp wheel. I also want the paintwork looked at, but that’s dependant on how cheaply I get the parts for the build.
Talking of parts, since I’m an absolute novice at this and it’s my first rodeo, I need everything. I have no magical parts bucket that I can find the perfect part. All in due time I hope.

So pls feel free to offer me appropriate parts or link me to them. Meanwhile, since I have a valuable day all to myself, I going to make a cup of tea and read everyone else’s projects for inspiration.

Would love to see the finished article

Amazing what you find in the charity shops these days. Was in my LBS yesterday when a guy walked in with a Koga Miyata with full Campy in vgc that he’d just paid £20 for. Both the shop owner and I promptly offered a large return on his investment, but he politely declined. Well jel

I don’t think they realised what they had

Funny you posted this. Was down the local LBS yesterday and a guy had found one of these in a charity shop with full campy groupset in amazing condition for £20. Was well jel

5th Dibs, but not confident it’ll get that far

Not been on here for a while, but first thing I did was check your current projects. You have no disappointed. This is a stunning bike.
