This took me far too long and far too much money to build, but its exactly how i want it and i don't regret any of it. Not really a rider, i have too many other bikes that are better riding and see not enough use as it is. Frame: Tsunoda Aerodynamics Fork: Tsunoda Aerodynamics Headset: DA EX...

Re:

I purchase this Tange Aero tubed frame off ebay a little bit ago. Then i went a bit overboard. Shiny NOS Bits Shiny not NOS bits. Rear hub is in good enough nick for this, the front is a bit meh, so im going to replace it.

it rides great! something about 2 inches of air at 30psi is awesome. do it, it can be done quite cheaply and they are great.

yep indeed. dad didnt want to spend the $2200 on a pashley though. this cost half that.

ok lots of questions:O Rear hub is 117mm old. rear hub is a sturmey xrd3 http://www.sturmey-archer.com/products/hubs/cid/3/id/14 yep, 100mm. frame was ~ 115mm, so the hub just went in, i didnt cold set it or anything. Donor frame was a 1930s malvern star frame, frame is heavy as all hell...

thanks for the comments guys....dad loves it. velocity p35 29er mtb rims. 35mm wide black and 29er......exactly what i needed. (i really need to get a picture of the lack of tyre clearance)

3spd with drum. shhhhhhh! yep, upside down girly bars!

frame was powdercoated and the stars were done with just stock standard model paint.

this is posted in full in the road section, but i know not many people venture there, and it also has "lets see your skinny wheeled bikes" in the title subscript. basically started like this: paint on its death bed, rear hub wrecked, both rims meh, tyres an obscure size not worth...

bike now has a 3sp sturmey archer thumbshifter as opposed to the ugly grip shit. loooks muuuuch better.

mmmmm king. i have a 3dv headset! :D

not quite done, need specific cable for the thumb shifter (been ordered) and when thats all good and installed either brooks leather tape or their lock on grip type things. (and it looks in better proportion in real life)

brooks b17 in honey :D itll match the vintage brooks seat clamp that came with the bike too.

still looking!

great guy, quick postage and great packaging to protect from the nufties over here in oz! thanks very much!

yeah, stars are being done, the frame is definitely not completely finished. i thought about leaving it alone, but whats the point in a bike that cant be ridden? (the wheels were gone, and were some obscure early 20th century size so replacement tyres would be impossible to find. if not...
