Cheaper than taking a mistress.
Tuesday was extremely select...me, Ed and John. Good dry, mud-free ride round the usual Ticknall haunts, topped off by joining the Ticknal Knitting Group in The Chequers...... surrrreal
My whoopeee news is that the Kona threads are fine and the new bottom bracket has gone in like a dream. Think I'm still taking the Dyna-Tech on Saturday.
When are you off to France...and more's to the point when are you back?

hmmm. I'm sort of getting it but it's made in Taiwan (not that that's a bad thing), but for that sort of money (will be around £800 or maybe more to your door after taxes etc) you could have someone make one for you to your exact spec. Also would a 23" effective top tube not be too long for you? Having said that 4130 is what my Surly is made from and I like that
