  • Don't sell! I've had my fixed frame for about 3½ years. It isn't anything fancy but it fits me well. If you sell it you will regret it!

  • Looks good man. I agree with the rest of them, it would be a shame to sell and i'm sure you would regret it.

  • Okay! Okay! You guys have fully convinced me to keep it for the foreseeable future. :)

    Now, I think I will have to sell the original forks, (the undrilled steel ones) to gather some funds to possibly buy a rear wheel. Any idea(s) what it might go for?

  • I was going through my old parts recently and I've got some double straps and a brake/lever you can have if you still need. Also pedals but pretty crap ones and probably clips.

  • Yeah - definitely still interested in straps and pedals.

  • If you're at St Paul's on Saturday I'll bring them.

  • Yeah I'll probably be there at around 8 ish (depending when you and Indra are there) to swap some a stem with the guy. Won't be going on the ride though. :(

    How much?

  • considering you can't buy me a beer, £1.20 which is the price of a beer from my nearest shop

  • Cool. What time will you be at St Pauls?

  • About 7:45 I guess

  • Well .. shit. #I'veBeenIndra'd

    Right toe-clip died on me on my way home. :( Luckily I was only 4 minutes away. I'm impresses though, my brother used the same pedal/toeclip for about a year and a bit and I've used it for the past 5 months - lasted longer than I expected.

  • In need of a left 165mm black crank arm, I think the one I have on now is gone.

    The threads may have been stripped and is not allowing pedals to be tightened. :/

  • Yup that's stripped alright but you can fix it.

  • Hmm .. looks long. Will probably just look for another crank arm.

  • i'll sell you a set of RD2s with a FXYO ring for £30

  • ^ I'm trying to save some cash for a rear wheel - can't shell out 30 for new cranks.

  • Hmm...

  • How much you looking to spend on a rear wheel?

  • Bout 35 Ish. Getting some funds from the stock steel forks tomorrow hopefully.

    Thats such a good deal dont turn it down.

  • Haven't got money Dakin!

  • Fort has been treated to a few new components, (all mine! :), the bike is officially built (going to be built) with all the components being mine.

    New Wheelset - 40mm deep black rims. Thanks Shinkuu for front wheel. And BigH for rear wheel -

    New Cockpit - Wider risers, around 56cm and FSA stem. - Thank you Indra for stem

    New Pedals and Cages - Thanks Shinkuu, once more.

    Fort has been disassembled due to me taking a week break (and left crank being stripped), will try and build back up tomorrow. And get some new pictures out!

  • C'est fini*

    Anyone want to hazard a guesstimate of how much the whole build cost me? Closest one gets some rep.

    *Need a flite saddle, will keep hassling Chak to cough up the one he bought from Mr. Tommmmmmmmmm

  • £337.50
