Hey @dangeek , please could you produce some 'LFGSS IS DEAD' stickers, same text size & spacing as originals, instead of needing to buy an LFGSS and a DBAD sticker, then trimming and applying accordingly.
Silly protest at @amey and CP consisting mostly of multi-geared builds.
I'm expecting a hard 'no' but thought to ask :-DLike this (excuse the 1min appalling photoshop), maybe slightly more space between 'LFGSS' and 'IS'.
Thanks!EDIT: if 'yes' I wish to buy 4x black & 2x white ones.

Yay! Someone cool on eBay is producing vinyl repro Dolan downtube decals in the new typeface (size 348 x 40mm).

Might get some for my black Pursuit Champ because it's looking a bit naked.Only problem is I made logo stencils for the DIY spray job of my grey one, but just made them the size I thought looked best on the frame (because I don't know what the factory decal dimensions are) and I'd like these to be the same size...
Can anyone with a 2017-on Pre Cursa or TC1 tell me the length and height of their big down tube decal?
(i.e. X x Y dimensions if you were to draw a rectangular box around it)Seller sounds like they'll make them to whatever size, so would nice to know the dimensions of the factory decals so there's a source for anyone wanting to DIY.

I thought atmosphere in the small hours was pretty good too.
Can see increase in participation being a problem only on the first few laps, because that was a contributing factor to the crash early on last year (although it was mainly one guy's fault, pulling a dumb cutting-in move and giving the rider on his inside at 'death corner' nowhere to go).
Loved having to take that corner flat out fixed with everyone else coasting.
I think the course could definitely take more riders, because for me it felt a bit sparse most of the time.
I think there were 150 slots last year, but only 130ish raced, so think they're banking on a similar % of entrants not turning up while filling the course a bit more (and making a bit more money in the process). -

Anyway, someone out there's now knocking them off :-/ -

@Nahguavkire not TB14, but if you don't find anything, I have a new/unused 32h set of these (possibly the pair photographed) that I don't need.
https://www.hubjub.co.uk/handbuilt-track-wheelset-kinlin-adhnsturmey-archer-hbt30-2835-p.asp
Rim is sleeve jointed but silver anodised in addition to being polished like TB14, and Kinlin's alloy is harder wearing/longer lasting than HPS under braking. Still 23mm wide but slightly taller profile (stiffer) with similar weight.
Decals on hub are pad printed so could be removed with acetone if you don't like them.
Looking for £145 but will require posting (in Manchester), so that will bump up to about £160. -

Dura-Ace HB-7600 front
Not sure on shipping, but bit of a steal at less than £45 new. -
(Crappy phone pic alert)
Won a fixed crit at York circuit on Saturday on shiny Pursuit Champ. Wicked day.
Applied some textured satin vinyl to the top tube to protect polished alu from being scuffed by legs, mirroring top tube paint on my grey one. Thinking about decals now... Would love to sandblast them but don't want to do anything permanent should I ever sell, so thinking a new DT Dolan logo in a thin dusting of matte silver/sparkle paint to give a blasted effect, that can be wiped off with acetone if desired.
Gopro mount under stem also mounted directly to stem, using rivet nuts and a printed plastic shim. -

Got the 53t outer ring from an FSA Vision Trimax crankset (https://www.cyclesolutions.co.uk/Images/Products/105974.jpg) with the ugly decal removed then lacquered so it's just satin finish wavy carbon (carbon faced alu, not full carbon). £13 posted?

Got a spare Novatec A171 if you want it for spares. Bought new from @cycleclinic, black with silver end caps. Built up (28h 2-cross) but changed mind on colour scheme so never actually ridden, £12 posted? PM if interested.

Difficult question to answer because listings for counterfeit items get taken down all the time.
Not photochromatic, but just ordered a pair of these the other day, https://goo.gl/rNgBVE (supplied with one polarised lens) after 20 months of good experiences with a pair I'm fairly sure is from the same seller.
