the build is like clapped-out porn-star, started off well but now just leaves a bad taste in your mouth!

^ i dont think you will have trouble with that, as at £199 you prob make a lose if you sold it on so its safe to say anyone that dibs will want to build it up :)

£250 is a fair price for everyone. £200 if you want it gone 'soonish'

Seriously, they don't like grasses in Byker.

Ask the ratboy.

tru -dat!

Everyone should be chipped and DNA registered at birth.

talking about taking your freedom away. if you want to be chipped like a animal then by all mean.

not that we have the technology to start doing something stupid as that....

when you take it out for a spin take a camera with you- would be nice to see the bike in all its glory.

So I got the Olmo in the post Yesterday. Was relieved to find it took a 650c up front rather then a 24". Slight disappointed that I couldnt use my kick ASS NOS Zeus post as it turned out to be 26.8 not the 27.2 advertised. But thankfully the shop had a single 26.8 Campag Aero post. So bunged that in there, and then the puppy killing commenced.

Just thrown all the parts on I have lying around. Gonna take the Gippiemme BB out (too long) and replace it with my dear friend phil and need to change the horrid looking rear wheel. Trying to decide if it should be a black rim or a chrome one (Opinions?), and how deep it should be. Will sort out some alternative bars too, Mavic pursuit would be ideal, but I can't find any so it may have to be Cinelli LA84s or Profile Design.

Will take it for its maiden voyage the whole mile point five to work in the morning. Hoping the poor chain alignment doesn't kill me and the brand spanking new Tufo Tub doesn't ping off (first one I've ever put on).

Pic Below. Its shit iPhone quality on a very busy background. Ha. Photographer I am not.

EDIT: The seat post comes out at a crazy steep 79 degrees.

i have green and yellow rear deep v wheels. interested?

you can get a new one for £13 so lower your price and people might be interested.

does it have to be black or are you flexible on the colour?

is frame sold?

is that posted?

i was really after one in good condition to suit the build...

i was expecting a bit less then £38.25 (parker-intern...)

thanks anyway i know you tried.

i after a rolls saddle to compete my build. specs... black, in good or better condition. alternatively recomment somewhere i can get them fairly cheap (-£39)

images would be a great help, for me to see the condition.

I always wondered how bad this was on the frame, and how it affects the tubes fatigue...
If you are riding a Charge or a trick bike, that's fine, but on a classic track bike, or on road bike conversion, when pencil seat stays are present for instance...

On my Holsdworth, I was alway nervous about the pencil seat stays precisely when skidding (I would only rarely do skid stop with it, as I am not good at it and I had a front brake anyway on that bike) and it broke somewhere else...
