Awesome man - thanks for the heads up!

Headset sold - post updated

Still pretty new to the forums, so thought I'd introduce myself a little more, and keep a record of what will be my first fixed gear bike "by design", rather than something I've assembled from random crap I found lying around so I could get out and skid around and have fun.

Unfortunately, I am a sucker for Cinelli bikes. Can't explain why, and I know they are overpriced etc, but I wanted one. Fortunately for me, when Planet X started selling them for cheapz, I managed to get onboard and grab one before they went, so I didn't have to pay through the nose for it. I also bloody love the colourway on it.

At present, I have only got the frameset - I'm going to have some wheels built to my own spec for this one, and the other fixed gear is an old steely, so practically none of the parts fit. That means playing the waiting game while I source and save for the parts, but I reckon it will be worth it once I finally ride it for the first time

Current proposed spec

Frame and hardware
Cinelli Vigorosa 56cm F+F
Deda RHM01 compact drops
Deda/cinelli stem - unknown which one just yet
Cinelli/Thomson seatpost
SRAM Omnium cranks - 48t
ATAC pedals
Cinelli Bartape - dunno which one yet
Fizik Aliante saddle
KMC chain

Wheels
H+Son Grey Ano TB14 rims
BLB Track hubs
Spokes on wheel builders' recomendation
EAI 19t and Dura Ace 15t cogs
Gatorskins

Got shown the catalog for this in a local wrench's place, and spent the next 10 minutes laughing at the pictures in it too. Much funnies.

I never did get a better picture, but this was my beater/anything-fixed-gear until I beat it once too often and the headtube started to crack....! Got the frame hanging on the wall now

Hi guys. This is a repost of a previous thread that somehow I managed to close and render inoperable (like a chump). I've taken 20% off the previous prices for all items that are still available and taken off the originals. As before all prices are exclusive of postage costs. I'm based in Bristol, so if you wanna collect them great, if not I'm happy to post anything listed (postage is £3 per item, but if you are buying multiple things I'll sort something out).

Pictures can be found on the original thread here. As seems to be the way on the forum, dibs first and then pm me. Cheers everyone!

I'm just trying to open it back up - I closed it by accident

Hi Velocio

I've unfortunately done the same thing after being a complete dunce on one of my threads. For some reason though, there isn't a dropdown menu I can see on the thread actions section - there is just a go button, and that leads to a page that doesn't appear to have any options for restoring the thread. I've tried on firefox and chrome - any suggestions for how to bring the menu up?

Cheers in advance

Campy chainrings added

They are feckin' terrible whatever they are

Hi guys. First time selling, so although I've tried to cover everything I need to for selling, I'm sure I'll have missed something. If so just let me know, and I'll make the amendments. All prices are exclusive of postage costs. I'm based in Bristol, so if you wanna collect them great, if not I'm happy to post anything listed (postage is £3 per item, but if you are buying multiple things I'll sort something out).

Pictures to follow asap. As seems to be the way on the forum, dibs first and then pm me. Cheers everyone!
