do you need a pair of these?

looking sweet (you've got your cable adjuster on the down tube on upside down/back to front) ;)

Celebrated the arrival of some new shiny things by taking another photo of the growing parts pile:

hello old friends (esp levers) - why did i sell you? come back - all is forgiven ;)

Hard to get that from the website, it says "Rourke Handbuilt frame", other than that there's nothing on there.

Looking at the advert I'd certainly not know that a custom fitting was involved.

true enough - the website is cack :)

Just had a look- Rourke's site is shit!

That's hand built, not custom- there is a difference, although obviously not a huge one if your goals are met by the hand built frame.

Getting that Rourke frame drilled for Di2, 44mm head tube and an extended head tube would see the costs escalate pretty rapidly

Rourke frames not custom???
Of course they are - they measure you up for hours and every frame is built to your measurements - if that's not custom what is?

2nd dibs on the record levers please...

Thought nemesis were tubulars only and that these "nemesis clinchers" are a version that wheelsmith make themselves or similar ? They offer a rim called nemesis clincher atleast. Bit strange.

John do you know more ? Looks like a nice bike btw if yours.

Yep - the rims you see are the Nemesis clincher - they are manafactured by Wheelsmith (or somone he knows) and sold - ususally as built wheels on his website. The counterweights are stamped as Ambrosio .
I bought this wheelset fully built (with record hubs) - they were from his showbike.
That's my 953 Rourke in the pic ;)

Love this Serotta build BTW

wheelsmith in scotland makes these "nemesis" clinchers - 23mm wide and the anodisation is mega tough

Looking for a Chris King 1" Silver bearing cap - new if possible
i can swap for a brand new green one or will buy
cheers

...

I used to live in Hoxton in the 90s and used to go canoeing along the Regent's canal down that way - the little scrotes from the estate used to lob stuff at us (usually aiming for the head) -- sad to see nothing much has changed...........

dibs the front derailleur for gaz1979 if that's possible? - (he has a wanted ad up for one)

bearings must be in good nick
what have you got?
(will require postage up north)
thanks

my 953

on that pic is it his hair or the aero helmet?

certainly looks very aero ...

yep - aero hair.
Back in the good old days hardly anyone wore helmets - the bouffant hairstyles were enough protection.
Hairnets were invented to make sure that the hair didn't go into the rider's eyes which could have led to some nasty crashes (especially when doing a head down Time trial).

From the website:
"We also know that frames in generic sizes are often (if not mostly) unhappy compromises for the end user, either resulting in discomfort, loss of power, or having to compensate with componentry (longer/shorter stem, offset seat pins etc..)"
I thought that was interesting as most of the talbot builds appear to have inline posts whereas other builders (Rourke especially) and Pegoretti for example favour the use of setback seatposts. (more power through the pedals and less weight through the bars?)

The build does look great and the owner says it fits really well but it does look like the rider would be in a position that puts a lot of weight through the bars.
(not a criticism - just an observation!)

New price 200ft

That is a height or distance measurement not a price.
