So got the wire wool out and cleaned up the remaining bits of paint from the rear triangle. The chrome that was hidden under the paintwork looks pretty dull but should polish up quite nicely.

Also had a quick filing session on one of the braze ons. I have a cheap crappy file so this is going to take a while!

Frame and forks are pretty lightweight, made from columbus matrix which is now called cromor I believe.

Has anyone had any experience of getting their frame powdercoated at armourtex but having the chrome masked off?

And otter's.

I had been looking for a langster steel frame for a while as I wanted to build one up into my work SS bike and to get me around from a to b etc.

Had a very specific look for the bike in my head - gloss black frame with chrome forks and rear triangle, loads of chrome parts and some brown bits for my ass and hands to make contact with.

Long story short, couldn't get a langster frame in the size I wanted or for the price I wanted to pay.

Saw this on the forum for super cheap (£60) and took a chance on it.

I thought I would make do with the chrome chainstay.

Got the frame home and took a scraper to the paint and found that there was chrome on both dropouts so I've taken some nitromors to it and the entire rear triangle is chromed which is awesome.

Hacked off the downtube braze-ons and now I need to file off what is left. Will be running front and back brakes but I might saw the rear hanger and the cable guides on the bb shell off.

Just got back from NYC where I went to the bi-annual bike jumble in Brooklyn where I could have bought several bikes. It was unreal.

I actually came away with a C-Record headset and a Centaur chainset.

Starting to collect other bits and bobs, will get some photos of the frame in its current state up tomorrow.

Anyone got a 1" headset that is not needed? Looking for something with sealed bearings like a stronglight / tange / shimano type deal.

There is a new guy on trafalgar street running a shop called velo vitality. His servicing prices are about half of what the other local shops are charging.

Yeah ocdc I do the same thing in the mornings but go right at the pub turn off and down towards the Poynings roundabout and then back up along saddlescombe road.

i'd like to play, but no idea what's going on here! rules?

Hey Brian. The idea is you have to take a photo of your bike at the same place the last person did then you take a new photo and other people have to guess where it is and do the same and so on and so on.

Just started following you guys on Strava, always up for more people to ride with.

Maybe £40 is too steep. £30?

Sold

I have a full clipless set up going if someone out there fancied giving it a try for the first time?

DHB Road Shoes EU44 (UK9) with Keo grey cleats.
Look Keo Pedals

Shoes are in good nick, so are the pedals - cleats are a bit worn but still functional.

I think this is a great idea given the success of the hunt and the north race. It's whether you do some sort of city crit or something heading out into the downs.

Thought it might be worth posting in here as my wanted ad didn't get me anywhere - I'm after a 2010/2011 56cm steel frameset (or a full bike potentially).

If anyone wants to get rid then get in touch.

I'm aware of this but it kinda makes sense to have a 'local' Strava post for people who don't live in London.

I was wondering if anyone uses Strava to track their rides, might be good to see where everyone else is heading out?

This...

He wants £360 and its brand new.

Needs to be 56cm mate, thanks though!

Looking for one of these to build up as my to/from work bike.

Cash waiting, really only after frame/forks/headset and maybe bb.

Going to paint it black so the paint condition doesn't matter too much as long as the chrome is good and there are no dents etc.

Based in Brighton but can do a pick up from London or postage.

Would consider taking a whole bike as long as the price was right.

Will swap for coffee? #yes

PM'd you mate.

Just in case this fell through or wasn't as desired, I'm after this exact offering...

Sorry mate. Sold.

Anyone want a load of CDs for free?

I thought I would offer them up for free to anyone who would like them. I don't mind bringing them to you in Brighton city centre if you buy me a coffee. I'd prefer someone to take the whole lot, I'm not going to run around town delivering 1 or 2 CDs to a load of people.

Just noticed that if you look at the sellers completed listings he already tried to list it on July 13th with a start price of 99p and then must had made the item no longer for sale.
