Yes just seeking a more solid opinion

Me again, link below! No idea what the tubing for this is, the dropouts do have Reynolds stamped on them, but that's all I know, I'm guessing Columbus OR / MAX or something similar? CHURZ

So I have some Suntour XC brakes (roller cam rear) and a mix of XT and LX that I have hanging around waiting for something like this. Paint Job will be meeting of classic fades and riddler stripes, there's going to be a lot of masking tape happening but I'll keep the stripes minimal and a bit...

Excellent! this is very useful! Thanks

Thanks everyone , better images below. I've picked up a problem solver clamp on a pulley thing which will work to change cable direction to down pull , but does this leaves those cool dumbbell braze ons redundant as they are very close to the frame and the pulley sticks out a lot. I think...

I think Ill go with paint now after some thought

Ok thanks for the info, I'll consider this, although Im not 100% on the raw idea.

Not familiar with this, tell me more!

My first came out like this, but I might go a bit less fruit salad this time.

Indeed!

I could go full green and black 'riddler' but maybe that's obvious. I'm tempted to go Raw to show off the brazing.

Recently acquired, Reynolds stamp on the dropout...... Is it Columbus or Reynolds??? Churz

Looks like an old post, but are they still available??!

It came to me like this unbuilt..... I thought the frame would require a top pull front mech and then I saw the dumb bell braze ons and figured that if a cable comes over the top tube down the seat tube through one dumbbell and through a cable outer with ferrules then back up the second dumbbell...

Saw it a few weeks ago, looks interesting, basic and a bit tired https://www.gumtree.com/p/bicycles/old-80-s-style-retro-mountain-bike-very-large-23-inch-frame/1409535073

I bought some roller cam brakes which were going to be sold with a frame but he very kindly sold me them on their own for my project. Prompt shipping and reliable seller!!

Not mine! apparently 'hardly used' You'd think they would would bother to get it down off the wall for £600 tho. Maybe the 'hardly used' shed is part fo the deal? https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/324882783310?hash=item4ba485dc4e:g:OFoAAOSwYCRhj9x6

I came across a lovely Overbury's Pioneer E stay frame (mentioned on here somewhere), and amazingly Mr Ox has some matching forks which I'll get sent to me at some point, but what I don't have are U or Roller Cam brakes. I think I'd prefer RC's as they in my opinion will look very very cool and...
