3rd? dibs on the wheels

+1 for kjn

potential dibs gimme 2 mins

edit : dibs withdrawn sorry

ooh nice, i saw that earlier on insta, i think ima give it a go

I printed a load of parts for my jig because i don't have access to much in the way of lathe/mill. Worked out pretty well, tho i think for oxyfeul it might not, i tig weld. Tack in the jig and remove to weld up, so the tubes dont get too hot in the jig. Otherwise i think you'd have problems with melting stuff

If you want to save a bit of money I 3d printed the tubing supports for my jig, a ht puck and cone, st cone, bb supports and a dummy axle holder thing. I outsourced the printing and they came out pretty good. Not sure how it would fair for oxyfeul, i only tig. Tack in the jig and remove, so they dont get that warm and havent had any issues with melting. Happy to provide CAD files, but they are specific to the extrusion i used.

anyone on here race at hillingdon today? on a specialised allez i think, i could've sworn ive seen the bike on a current projects thread here, but i couldnt find it

not sure if still looking, but i have a bmc streetracer road frame + group +rear wheel, compact 57 geo, all it needs is a front wheel.
cosmetic scratches but in good condition, full 105 group,
£175

Took a photo of a cyclist at oxford street before christmas, just got round to editing it and thought it might be a lfgss'er

Rtech welding are really good, i bought a dc 160 machine from them and its great.
customer service is amazing as well.
I dont know about their other machines, but mine is awesome, i'm sure the more expensive are as good or better

Any questions just ask

this is cool, whats the history of this? Was it originally built as a track frame and had bits drilled? or was it like a vinateg road fixed deal.
Either way i like it, nice one

I did the 7 day course with the bicycle academy. It was really great, the guys are super nice, i left with a frame and so much learnt. Couldn't recommend them enough. They are based in Frome, Somerset. Not too bad to get to, cute little town, air bnb wasn't crazy expensive, there's even a masonic hall if you're into that kinda thing.

I think all the courses are always only 2 students to atleast 1/2 people teaching. I did mine with a really nice guy called Rory who had travelled all the way from New York state to do the course. A couple weeks ago i was thinking about contacting him to see how his frame came out. But i forgot his surname...bummer.

They have a nice setup where andrew or someone else cooked lunch each day, everyone sat and ate together. BTR fabrications are based in the same building. Listening to them discuss the details of framebuilding and other engineering/fab work really demonstrated the vast array of knowledge and skill available to us.

They have a very "modern" approach to teaching. There's no mystery framebuilding magic that can only be learnt with 10 years of framebuilding. Robin Mather did most of the teaching on the course i did, with a bit from Andrew the founder. Both are great teachers and I quickly became confident with the fillet brazing technique.

Overall really awesome, highlight of my year. Highly highly recommend

nice one, tidy looking build

could probably use a price
