I did this last September from Inverness South. I started trying to take the Great Glen Way but soon after Inverness turned around and took the B-roads on the South bank through Foyers through to Fort Augustus. The roads were really nice with a nice slow climb up the Suie. After Fort Augustus I picked up the Great Glen Way again but as you say it is mostly Canal Paths and Forest Trails. One section was over a pretty rough hard pack walking trail. I managed to do all of it on my Surly Disc Trucker with Conti Contact II Reflex tyres.

PM'd about Paul wheelset

I'd be interested in a purchase. I'm up in Aberdeen if you can post.

Anti-porn infiltrating the album covers of Korean Pop Music...

I covered my saddle following these instructions, but forgot to take a before photo so I appologize for that. It was originally a black KHS suspentech saddle which had "suspentech" embroidered down the saddle in yellow. The old saddle was pretty worn and ugly as sin, so I thought I'd have a go at recovering it. I used brown goat suede.

I'll get some better photos of it up at a later date but here is one of it on the bike. I am pleased with the way it feels but wish I had done a better job at the nose of the saddle.

noice. is that a khs?

Yup. '98 Aero track

Got some new wheels off of craiglist here in Houston TX. $220

DA 7600 32H to Mavic GP4 tubs. Gonna put them on the ride below.

sorry for the crap phone camera pictures.

i'll build a full NJS track bike before I die...:)

another Vivalo-

If you build one, don't make it as HHSB as these.

and if they are really good they can get a star next to their name, or double circle :)

Once I unpack at my new address I'll scan in some of the other stuff I picked up. There is really detailed info about the riders, such as what gear ratio they are riding.

Here is something I just found whilst packing for a move. I picked it up when I went to the New Years' Keirin Races in Tokyo this past winter. I just scanned it in for you all.

repost? but needing something....

Grips on the tops but not on the drops makes it anti-porn.

Also, not sure about the Makino forks on the 3rensho frame.

Test 1........ Hammer, Crowbar, Boltcroppers (handpowered), any other suggestions?

Test 2........Angle grinder, battery powered hydraulic bolt croppers, any other suggestions?

I've heard of people using small car jacks to pop open U locks... Now sure if you want to consider this.

As far as I know the Campag headsets are just ISO spec. And the Tange Seiki headset is a replica of the old record headsets, so should be fine.

you're thinking of a cartoon carrot aren't you?

Yes. Bugs Bunny did come to mind.

The fact it sold for 7.50 sums up the extent of it's antiness

Orange? Can be a carrot bike

I know the guy who is their representative in the US. They are starting to import them here. They gave a pair of the rims to the bike shop which I frequent in New York, and they seem pleased enough with the rims after they built them up. Nothing spectacular though.

awesome. Was just about to post this

yeah. Maybe I'll try offering them for around $130.

Not bad considering I got the whole bike for $280, complete with Sugino 75 crankset.

cheers.

I created the other thread after posting here, as I realised the for sale section might not be the best place to get info.

seems so.

I had one guy interested, but they were too narrow for him.

I might put them up on ebay or for sale on fixed.gr/nyc

So I am planning on selling my Cinelli Pista 67-39 bars on fixed/gr/nyc

However, I have no idea how much to ask for them. They came with my bike which I got a fantastic deal on. I did some research on eBay and I have seen bars in worse condition go for $100, and bar with stems being offered for $250.

Thanks for any advice.

I'm was in the process of taking off the grips when I took of the photo. Unfortunately one of them ripped.

Does anyone know what a pair of these are worth? I am trying to sell them to someone over here in the states and don't really have a clue. My bars are in really good condition.

Did you sell him any gold?

Unfortunately not. I didn't have my Mr. T gold chains on me at the time
