Looks great dan bo, nice smooth job - gonna get some paint on the repair?

My new commuter.

Nice. Purposeful. That's what I like in a bike.

Yeah once i'm happy its not gonna break again. It's laquered at the mo and only gets used on the track so it'll be fine.

That is extraordinarily beautiful. Any chance of a couple more pictures?

ok - i can do that at the weekend - what would you like a picture of?
here's a few of the frame when i received it...and a few when the hammerite was rubbed off.
£50 for the paint job - £5 for the tange forks, rear chrome still ok.
campag gransport chainset, and GS hubs on mavic rims, campag headset, cinelli bars and stem basically anything i had and would fit
alghonga deep drop brakes as the wheels are now 700c (was originally 27") - maybe about £80 all in at the most

Some beautiful road bikes, love the simple elegance and paint schemes.
Think i have my next project.
Here is my old mtb recently converted to ss, not as pretty i know. Fitted with surly gears of 36/18. Also fitted discs as old rims worn. Impressed with the direct drive, but spinning like a madman on the flats. Considering refitting front mech and outer ring to give an overdrive.

Here's mine - pretty simple, old school - at the end of the road on our island, nowhere to go except back the way you came...

Simple unfussy commuter: My new Ridgeback Solo

Understated carbon forks, with a nice retro curve

And I got the uncomfortable standard saddle changed for Charge Spoon. Never ridden one, but they come highly recommended. If it doesn't work, I'll put my usual Specialized Indie XC on

I picked it up yesterday, and have since fitted the Marathon Pluses you see attached to my saddlebag. As well as an old pannier rack and a scruffier bottlecage and a fixed sprocket. Lack of chain means I'm still running it singlespeed, which is OK, but not what I want to do. Well, what I really want to do is fit an S3X at the back and a Schmidt nabendynamo up front.

Runs well, and was a bargain at £340. There are still some available at Evans for £399 (originally £599). But you do have to put up with Evans service for that.

Oh, if it looks familiar, it's a rebrand of the Genesis Skyline.

Anyway, this should see a lot of miles from now on.

Here's mine, just a borin' ol' Singlecross, 70" fixed. I've just been for a little tour on it, very nice it was.

Hi, this is my custom built Mercian The wheels were built by Harry Rowland with a SON hub at the front and a Phil Wood at the back.I built it after picking up the frame from Mercian, although it's got a Brooks on now. It has not been necessary to true the wheels in about 20,000 miles.

Your garden's in a shocking state. Mow the lawn, man - have you no shame? 




Oh, nice bike BTW.
