I think that every time I see it.

Mainly into lo pro,s but do own a few MTB,s, this is my Cannonade Jekyll 1000 resprayed in Lamborghini Aventador Gold. Wrapped in inner tube to protect the paint job, 130 Max lefty and XT running gear with Hope single ring.

Andy

Aaaah its your's, beautiful must say I have quite a few lo pro,s, but would love to own this one.

Andy

The more you look at it, the more you realise Clamont got it spot on. Although frame size does play into the equation, it is almost mesmerising.

Andy

Why not just call them La 7400 instead.

Andy

Simply beautiful
Andy

Well thank God that we cleared that up, I shall return to my dissertation content in that very knowledge.

Andy?

That fork looks to suits the frame more than the original.

Andy

Well baby boy, its not looking like that to me.

Andy

Are you bored, drunk, stupid must be one of them please grow up.

Andy

What's wrong with you?

Andy

Did he contact you?

Andy

I think that is the appeal, so using them with elliptical rings should negate that then?

Andy

I think you are a bit stuck in the aero dept, life is not all about shaving 0.004/sec off.

Just picked up a set for my T.J.Quick, (Empson) in CP at the mo. Beautiful cranks and hard to find.

Andy

Just put 130mm 8 speed on with out having to cold set, perfectly centred so pretty happy with that.

Andy

Cheers guys, had thought about re-decaling it but who do you give it too, to do that.

Andy

Could well have been this one then, Chris thought it was built in 82/3 so it's probably been through a few hands. Must admit when I picked it up I was not that impressed, in fact I got another two soon after. It was when I gave the frame a good clean and started building it up I started liking it.

Feels well balanced and very light, can't wait to get the cranks on see how it rides. Was thinking of putting campy 8 speed ergo,s on, may well do that after I have ridden it a bit.

Andy

Hi Colin I got this frame from a guy called Chris a time trialist from the Brentwood area this is the info he sent me.

"A couple of years ago I rode the North Norfolk 100, and Doug Epson (Curlylugs on the CTT Forum) kindly sent me a photo. I then asked him whether he had built the frame; he said he had built a number of them, notably for his son Gary Epson who was 30 mile comp record holder, and I think for John French. Doug said he thought my frame was built by Tommy Quick but later modified and enamelled by Doug"

So if you were Norfolk way possibly or it may have been one of the other frames Doug built for his son.

Been writing a dissertation today so pretty worded out anyway a few changes to the bike. Cinelli stem and 51.151 bars with modolo levers and Maya bar tape. Love this bar tape and not had too many bikes I can use it on so happy.

Changed the wheel set for Hope Titanium hubs on Mavic Reflex rims running 8 speed campy block, lovely hubs light and spin forever.

Modolo Mach1 brakes and a Campy seat post with a simplex downtube shifter.

So just waiting on the cranks and this is ready for summer.

Andy

"hampered by the 10 double espressos we drank in the process" Seriously hampered? You guys could have rebuilt all the wheels on this forum whilst buzzing off that lot.

Andy

I would ask the seller for some provenance

Andy

Thats quite a mad design, I think i would keep the paint and just put Wing TT forks and a carbon bladed seat post.

Andy

It looks a great frame and even if its not a Pinnarello still a good buy at that price. Start with the Lo Pro club someone on there would know.

Andy

Hi, yeah between 126 and 130mm axle spacing and 45mm offset, tricky to measure but Im sure thats right.
By the way how is the koga you have
