honjos are so winter 09, spring will be the time of the nos peugot porteur guards.
start hunting kids!

Epic tyre choice superprecise.
Have those on my tandem and they are win.

Liz's honjos arrived yesterday and they are stunning. The frame(pug) has oversized looking holes for the mudguard mounts which will have to be overcome.
Measure twice. Drill once....

Def next purchase when my new Cofra Strong 3's die on me

Htfu and try wearing these all day.

Walking boots when stiffened, for instance Meindls top end boots (which use Vibram soles), use a more exaggerated camber to take into account the added stiffness, which in turn provides better protection for your ankle and reduces fatigue when hiking for long periods of time over rough terrain, as this stabilizes the foot better.

Meindl chainsaw boots ftw! Yet to own a pair but i lust after them so.

want.
Chainsaw boots are pretty much the same as walking boots except for the armour ;)
Would love to ma3k hack a pair for when i have to ride to site with all my gear, currently use bmx flats and the boots are waay too chunky to fit thru powergrips...
I wear chainsaw boots for up to 12hours a day on my feet in all weather doing ridiculous stuff, they are the most comfortable type of footwear i've ever owned. Not so chic as cycling shoes tho...

Btw this thread has made me look into finally going clipless. Ta for infos

Bump for an awesome ride led by a true gent.
Why ebay when you can stuff your curryer bag with haggled jumble parts?
Fuck tree climbing, do enough of that all week. I'm coming to glendene!

clutch - blast tyrant

winner.

protecting from caliper dings perhaps?

Awaiting the arrival of hammered honjos for gf bike mk2
Wish they were for me :(
Gonna look just peachy on her frame. Worried that honjos + white randos will be a massive anti but we shall see....

put my tape on... the brooks cork finishes it off nicely!

Good to see the tyres are holding up dude.
The white zafs i got off you are pretty much perfect after battering them since i got em.

Fantastic build, congrats.

i'd put some grip tape on those drops

You must have hands like a roofer if you're man enough for grip tape!!
Used to kill me cutting and fitting tape on decks as a yoof. ;)

Ooo. potentially porn-tastic.
Look forward to the finishing touches, frame is awesome.

Is fluted tubing is the look for winter 09, or is it already passe?

Great. If it were mine the 1st thing I'd do is put nice swept back bars, like on old French and English town bikes. You know the ones made from... METAL.

Like these ;) for girlfriend bike mk2

Worked with wood since 18, I would not ride those bars on the roads...
Unless it was laminated with some carbon or alloy slices. Or the road was perfectly tarmaced and pothole free.

too late in the eve for popcorn style debate on brake choice.
enjoy your bike.

If thats single speed with front brake only then it's a big nono from me. Doom and gloom awaits.
Not overly keen on the bars but the frame, components and rims look pretty nice together to me.
Needs drops, clips and fixed and it would be very wonderful indeed imho.

Scott -
Put me down for a coloured rosie from the next batch. Couldn't care less about colour. Need 2 in my life for work and play.

Is it tougher/cheaper than powder coat?

hunts for pic of rider with gigantic kelly

^win.
made iced-tea-guards this avo.
Impressed with the double stack version.

Damn you and your mighty surly stable.
I need to bring the trucker to your fine establishment for a tune-up at some point soon. Think i've missed out on the free servicing now but nevermind. Will be sensible and call the shop tomorrow to book it in with y'all.

Bring on a wet and miserable surly ride.

I think the tandaaarm may be in order for this ride.
I predict the rear admiral could muster all kinds of hi speed swashbucklery

Hell no.
More chat and cake, less htfu.
Slim chance i may be bailing to go on the london tree surgeons early xmas mass climb/pissup at the 2nd biggest plane tree in the uk in richmond park. Beer, stupid height lots of tree blokes swinging around, making zip lines etc.
Tough choice.
