Just had a 'ahhh, fuck it' moment, I now own this:
Exactly the same frame, just better paint and no bend.
-
Why doesn't someone local to the frame put a hefty D-lock on with there phone number written on it?
-
Mavic gp4 on dura ace hubs. Almost NOS £65
-
Just worth noting, most of the time they are way too hard to get out with a adjustable spanner, so I lay the BB cup in a vice and use the frame as torque. Make sure you rock it back and forth, this will clean the threads at the same time

What I am sending forbidden stares ATM http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/50mm-Clincher-fixed-gear-track-carbon-wheels-single-speed-700C-/230891615253?
Was looking at those exact ones.
or these:
would probably prefer these, then get them build on a 2nd hand pair of Dura-ace, then built by hand.
-
I'm more worried about the hub, surely the Chinese ones which are like 300 quid will have quite a cheap hub?
*novatec hubs. Hmmm..
-
As far as I can discern the Broby Carbon rims are just generic Chinese stuff- I had a look at them in Tokyo fixed, and the only difference between them and the stuff I ordered from China was pricetag and the Broby sticker- they had the exact same "warning!" stickers on.
Really? I've heard quite a few people raving about them, but never known anyone with experience of the chinese stuff of t'bay?

Looking for a carbon track wheelset. Ideally around 60mm, large-flange hubs
Preferably brobycarbons on dura-ace, but beggars can't be choosers!
Not really on a budget, just looking for the right thing! Pretty much anything considered.

90% of text/emails I make are on the toilet.

Rather than say what I received, I'll say what I gave!
Kindle for mum, dressing gown and peter powell kite for dad (nostalgic to him, this thing was in the wrapping since the 70's NOS!), got my sister vouchers for clothing stores.
Last week was chatting to my boss about a NJS build I'm hopefully going to start, was speaking with him about it and other bikes, opened my wages today and found an extra £100 with a note saying "a little something for your bike, enjoy"
Win!

Very astute financial practice, best accountant I know.
The thought of riding around on my dream bike this summer has made me save every last penny!
-
Thickslick tyres. Good condition, not that much wear to them, as you can see they are a little muddy, but I can clean before sale. I'd like £20 posted for the pair, £22 with innertubes.
-
As title suggests really.
Hope you all have a good day and the old man brings you many bike parts!
