Those looks are a-head, and carbon steerer. Thanks anyway.

I'm after a set of aero forks with a 1" steerer, which either has thread already, or can be threaded. I don't really want to change to aheadset, as I'm really happy with my bar/stem/headset setup at the moment. To fit 700c please.
Steerer can be short, as they're for my LoPro TT bike.

Something straight legged would be ideal, if not something like these would be quite nice:

Thanks very much,
Sam

I can't tell if that's a 700 or 650 front? perspective and half-functioning brain are screwing with me.

Pair of Mavic disc wheels:

most of my commute is on B-roads and country lanes, at a time of day when there are barely any cars.

the perfect commuting position for nipping in and out of traffic ? :-0

Stuck the tri-bars on the commuting Lo-Pro

and the girlfriend's bike is coming along:

also, this:

I've applied for a crew vacancy, for when I finish my boatbuilding course. exciting stuff!

Upstart, can I crew for you? I can do anything you want me to do! Deck work or trimming preferred.

Just applied for a vacancy as a deckhand in the summer /ships carpenter in the winter on this boat

oooh yeah.

Independent totally stole that paint job from me!

edit: I won't post the picture in here, because it's my own work, and not porn-worthy, but this is a paint job I did for a friend years ago. I call it 'digital fade'...

This is similar to the type I use:

I helicoiled an M6 thread into a pair of Hope hubs with QR axles, and used these with great success. A nice, neat solution, and a good alternative to a QR skewer, if it's done well.

I made my own front lights. 2 12v halogen bulbs (can't remember power), connected via a 2 pin connector to a 7.2v, 4.3 mAh, rechargeable battery from a remote control car. Made a foam-core carbon fibre case for them too, and dissolved the foam core away to leave an empty shell for the wiring/bulbs to go into.
Because I already had all the bits to make them, except the bulbs, I only spent £1.99 on them, and they are blindingly bright. Nice, light battery too!

Wasn't that wheel on this bike when you had a big front-end impact? Carbon doesn't like impacts.

And this groupset is awesome:

Buy it Now Coppi. Looks like a good price for a very nice nos frame:

Pinarello seems like an awesome price, and it's my size too. If only I had the space and money for another bike...

Rossin forks, I think. Good prices too!

Was the photo of the Burls taken at Dunwich?

I'm mostly riding this Poyner at the moment:

And still (pretty much) look like this:

I built that trials bike frame, by the way. Fillet brazed for my A-level project.

Are those Rigida DP18s for sale, by any chance? If yes, I'd be very interested.

Cheers. Stickers were on there when I got the frame though, and I think they're covering chips in the paint, so probably best to leave them alone unless I can get hold of some approximately colour-matched paint.
Probably agree with changing all the silver bits to black too, for aesthetics, but I'm happy with how it is at the moment. I'd only spend money on it if something needed] replacing, not just for looks.

Great stance and paint.

I'm glad you like it!

I'm a big fan of this:

probably a repost though...

1960s Omega Seamaster. I want one so desparately!

I wear a Barbour jacket, I don't think it's hipster.

Unless you shoot/live in the country, it's definitely just a fashion thing.
