Just start-to-finished this.

All I have to say is, ******* mega wow.

Can't wait to see it finished.

So much good stuff in this thread. So many good ideas and great fixes. And I'm sure all that patience and hustle is certain to pay off...

Re:

It's nearly there. I picked up some chain rings last week and the pedals are fitted. Just need to resolve the BB issue, source the grips and I'll be uploading the final shots.

Unfortunately, I'm a bit broke at the moment as I also just bought Lid's Funk Fat (unicrown) fork , which is going to require Funk number three

Re:

Found this on an Asian online auction site . I don't think it's Titanium and the rear triangle is quite different to mine, so is this the earlier incarnation i.e. the '93 Force G?

Re:

I just noticed that the Force GS advertised by Sevysa (page 9) has the same rear triangle/drops out, so I guess there were two variants of the same frame? Weird...

So are you buying that one Caspar?

Re:

I think this one has long gone (2019) but I'm on the hunt for something as equally rare

Could it be that the Sevysa spec is wrong and the bike is a mislabeled Force G? Maybe the S in "GS" refers to the S bends used on the chain and seat stays?

Re:

Which grips? Something like these? https://bicyclist.cc/shop/ritchey-wcs-f ... ike-grips/

Re:

I picked up a very nice set of Onza Porcipaws from Classic-Repro; here. Thanks for the link though

Just need the BB but I've already got one(ish)!

dont like the tyres but would like to see what looks like magic motorcycle cranks in the advert

Found this image of a Force G(?) from BITD on Flickr and it reminded me of LGF's comment... Amazing paint and parts - must have cost a pretty penny back then!
