Think it's just a longer stuboid stem - you interested in selling @ma2med0z?

It also depends on what you want to do on it - a 26" is a much comfier ride than a 24", and 24" can be pretty scary in traffic on the bullhorns!

That Cliff Shrubb is lovely though :)

3rd dibs on the Softshell please! PM'd

If you're interested, I've got an Open Pro CD on a Novatech hub, 120mm which shouldn't be a problem to respace and has never been used, which might solve your problem fairly simply. Bearing in mind it's got a fixed cog and a freewheel on it, i'd be looking for about £75 for it....PM if interested!

Thanks guys –

@TRA @Skülly I thought I was pretty explicit about what I wanted, I gave him the FC pics, and explained my vision. Apparently the turquoise would need to be a different colour, and would hence need to be put in the oven again - but he told me this after it was done.

I guess if i'd wanted to pay, I could have gone to Argos, or kleinspainted (who wanted 5x as much cash, and have a 24 month waiting list) The finish is very good, and at under £100, was fitting for my current situation. No, it wasn't quite what I was expecting, but i'm a designer, and have to get over myself every now and then, especially when i'm paying out of my own pocket :) A month later, and some fresh eyes, decals and nice black finishing kit, it's looking great :)

i'll get on and get it built!

Sorry for the lack of updates - My daughter is at a lovely interactive stage (4 months) so i've been spending most of my time with her, so apologies for the lack of updates.

So... the paint... I had hoped for more of a turquoise transition between the blue and the green, but i'm really pleased with it. Have fitted the CK 2 nut and a campag pista bb, here's a sneaky iphone shot..

I've got a black 2nut 1" if that's any use - few tool marks £65

Dibs airport Extreme

I'd be interested in this if BDW drops out...

Spoke to Mario last night - seatpost is out, brake bosses removed (by his brother Winston), and frame is now stipped, dipped and in primer waiting to be painted...

Very sad to hear...RIP Dwayne

haha...

@TRA nice work! I've been holding off doing that, as these things never end up looking quite how you want them to, but cheers! I think i've made the right choice of colour scheme...

If you can stick the JPG up, that would be great...

Cheers @TM, I actually decided to go for a caliper - the brake bosses weren't straight, and it irritated me! also, as the segmented fork is designed for a ~25c tyre, it tapers inwards at the top (unlike the MTB version which are straight) so I felt a caliper would be a neater option (also give the option to remove it for a cleaner look)

Popped down to Mario Vaz's this morning, and dropped the frame off with him... checking out some paint samples here, and matching it to the Yo Eddy reference (Mario's going to mix up a lime green with more yellow in it - this sample is actually more of a candy apple in the light)

I did this quick mockup of the rough fade direction i'm after (roughly an "average" angle of the top tube and seatstay angles.

I also provided some digital photos of the Yo Eddy as a reference, as the colours are obviously totally off printed in CMYK

Next question is brake bosses, or no brake bosses on the fork? i've got a Paul motolite caliper, mocked it up and it was massive... I'm gonna run a brake on this, so should I:

1. Go for a mini V - as a nod to the MTB inspiration, as the fork has bosses already
   
2. Go for a simple caliper brake, to clean up the front end
