is it just me or is the geometry on these a little bit odd?

Isn't it because BLB put track ends on road frames themselves? It's not a Coppi track frame.

.....my dad was from Romford.

Thats ESSEX!

On another note, is this open to Londoners who work in Ely sometimes and could jump off at Cambridge on the way home?

Cheers buddy, it's for tha same job, big rear cog or small chainring.

Hi,

found them. you can have both half cassettes if you like. Pretty greasy but should clean up ok. 24-25 ish teeth. Suit you?

Chris

Christ, you had a bit of a clearout didn't you?
I honestly didn't think you'd part with the BJ.

Chris

Nasty break Mashton. At least you are on the mend.

this is nat's (tattoed couriers) old ride. it's a beautiful bike. made of balsa wood. obviously she's bought someone off jos as a trade :)

It's really interesting. I might have a pop at it even though i really shouldn't.
I'd love a wooden frame, if not i'll only try to build one similar.

chris

Hmm, i have a 46t and 48t 110 bcd but sold the 36 and 38 to Julio with some cranks. Maybe ask her if she want's to part with one. I'll check in the other box for the cassette, it's not where i thought it was.

chris

That would be cool. It's only for polo so high quality not needed.

Balls, sorry Tommy i forgot all about this. I'll look tonight. I might also have an old ripped apart cassette that could yield a big rear cog.

Both nice.

Are you planning on running a brake? Know of a lever that fits over size risers?

Thats a pretty mega job you've done there. Well done!
Now, get it sprayed up sparkle silver pronto :)

Chris

North of the ferry is a pretty nice little campsite. I just turned up, paid the money and stayed for a few days. lots of smoking, plenty of cool people around who let me borrow their bikes.

I stayed here - http://www.vliegenbos.com/

It was probably one of my most relaxing and rewarding trips.

Chris

Edit: travel wise, i walked form there in to the centre most of the time. It was about 15 mins on foot.

Oooh! That would be great!
Pint? Or two....

PM me your details and i'll come pick it up.

Thanks again.

Chris

Let's get some design submissions! Here's something I knocked up (bear in mind I'm a spastic in photoshop):

BTW the fonts I used for this were Fenway Park JF and Agency FB Bold. They were reasonable approximations for Portland's Athletic Script and Pro Block.

The black version (or orange and black?) was exactly what i was thinking. Maybe with a bolder type.

Perfic.

like this?

Any condition but obviously must work, with or without pads and should be 39-49mm standard reach.
I've moved the brake back on to my roadbike after the nightride and am now a brake down.

Thanks, chris
