This has been my main commuter/winter hack for a few years. It’s a Dave Hinde Columbus SLX frame that I powder coated in ‘Turkish Delight’ pink.
-
Yes, it’s a bit hipster in its current form but I’ll probably put some drops and skinny tyres on it eventually. I have a vintage Mercian track frame going extremely cheap if you’re interested…
-
Finally built this up. Some nice bits from the parts bin. I call it ‘Lucifer’.
-
-
It's also on eBay...
-
Interesting that people will fork out 10k plus for the latest carbon offerings from Taiwan yet £350 for a handbuilt bespoke frame from one the finest frame builders there ever was is 'overpriced'.
-
Still available?
-
You'd have to pay me £100 to take it away.
-
I saw this one on eBay for a while! I was very tempted. How does it ride? Great colour!
-
It belonged to a dear uncle of mine. He bought it new in '68 and wore it everyday of his life. When he passed away a few years ago he bequeathed it to me.
-
42mm so it's a bit of a unit!
-
Only just realised this thread existed on here! Not surprised though. Here's a few pics of my 1968 Breitling Navitimer...
-
This warmed my cold dead heart.
-
If the price is right I could be very tempted! Lovely colour. Looks like my size as well....
-
Parts bin gravel beater. 1954 Viking Mileater with Nervex lugs. Just the right amount of patina I think.
-
Thanks! I've put a lot into this one. Spent a long time sourcing all the parts. It's definitely a fair weather only bike but yes, it will be ridden!
-
Just finished this one. 1981 Professional, original paint. Lots of Dura Ace 7400.
-
It is indeed a Condor repro. Not to everyone's taste but it's fine for posing around town. I certainly had some funny looks from the carbon fibre crowd on the lanes this morning...
-
Just finished this. Not sure if it's bike porn or anti porn.
-
That works for me. I'm in Worcester. I'm going to spend tonight thinking of all the reasons I shouldn't buy this and I'll let you know the result in the morning, if you still have it buy then!

I bought the hubs on Ebay and the front one came with that set up so I left it. Makes it easier for fixing punctures!
