Here's how I've got it now... note this photo was taken when it was about 37C on my way home.

Tape the bars and this would rock my socks.

Bars felt great this morning.

Kept the same length stem (100mm Nitto Pearl) and it works perefectly. The narrow risers made my arms go in and I was hunching my shoulders, the new bars felt a lot better.

I'll try and take a photo of the set up tonight.

^^ why are the panniers on the front?

I'm assuming no rack mounts, also he has a Cetma on the front, so it makes sense to mount a pannier to that that dick around trying to p-clip an ugly rear pannier rack.

Add downtube shifter and modern 8x1 groupset and bingo, much much lighter and more direct.

Sizemore did that for you.

Look at this picture:

Now imagine how you'll be sitting on that. Then think about reaching down for the dt shifter.

I'm not saying it can't be done, but pulling up to and away from traffic lights which one would you rather do?

In any event it's a lovely bike and I want one.

I agree. If I had the money, I'd totally convert the Cannondale Rack to a a thumbie on the bars. I'd love to be able to change gears without removing my hands from the bars.

And yeah, I'd love to ride something like this.

Whilst rivendell bikes are another league of craziness, I massively agree

FTFY

You've seen the bike with double chainrings and no front derailleur? How do you shift? With a stick!

Hmmm. Well I'll see how I go.

This the shape.

Installed them with some cut down CHAMPS grips (now HAMPS). Maiden voyage tomorrow.

Need help identifying a song froma bizarre source.

Currently when you to to the on demand/catchup menu on virgin TV it plays a reel of pay per view stuff in the corner. A backing song somes up which seems to be a cover of Iron Maiden's "Fear of the Dark" but in a very different style. Soft synths, spooky female backing vocals and an almost danzing esque lead male vocal, but english accent.

Covers of "Fear Of The Dark" (according to Wikipedia)

Graveworm, for their 2001 album Scourge of Malice[2] (often incorrectly attributed to Cradle of Filth or Children of Bodom).
Alternative rock band Fightstar performed a cover of the song for the Kerrang! "Maiden Heaven" tribute album,.
It was performed by Chuck Billy, Craig Goldy, Ricky Phillips, and Mikkey Dee for the tribute album Numbers from the Beast.
Italian Techno Duo DJ Activator and Francesco Zeta covered the song 2008 as a Hardstyle version and released it as a single in Italy.[3]
The Finnish Metal/Rock band Sturm und Drang performed a cover of this song on their 2008 release "Rock N' Roll Children" as a bonus track [4]

A-capella metal band Van Canto covered it on their second album Hero.

• Doro Pesch performed with Blaze Bayley on a Classical live version in 2004 at Wacken Open Air with strings and acoustic guitars.[5]
  
• Justice at Summer Breeze Open Air 2007.
  
• Pentagram (only live).[6]
  
• 1200 Micrograms' High Paradise, released on the album Live in Brazil(and remixes of it on others) features this song heavily.
  

This is one of my favourite internet bikes.

Whoops. I thought I'd seen all the latest posts.

Picking up some new bars for this tonight. Very similar to these in shape (in fact, probably are these with out the VO on them). The risers have been good, but felt to narrow.

Probably because it's a Baum.

Rad rad rad.

Did you tape up the bottom headset cup?

Double Dagger Vivre Sans Temps Mort - YouTube

Lack of mudguards, but...

I'd ride the shit out of this all summer long.

Town bars, 11 speed Alfine... Just needs bigger tyres and a bottle cage.

More (that I don't think were mentioned).

Velo Orange Milan

MAP / Ahearne (Cinelli Priest copies)

It was Gleaming The Cube, but on "fixies".

I give it 3 Kevin Bacon's out of 5 Quicksilvers.

^^ 47t is shit, they're ugly imo, as you said just as hard to get/pricey now anyway

Nah, 47x17 = win.
