The weans are no that bad it's the tattoo'ed hirsute beer bellied adults that worry me- and that's just the "wimmin"!

Good luck on the turbo just content yourself that you are not in some east coast quagmire in the pishing rain :twisted:

The frame is a rather luverly univega alpina pro that is being offered up for free, recon I could strip the gt and make a thing of beauty, take it to mayem. It's in the for sale section.

Congrats on scoring the Yo K , looking forward to seeing it.

That Univega does look nice

Hope to get the wheels for the Bomber next weekend then it'll be full steam ahead with that, spotted the Motorbike bars i'm going to use at Demon Tweeks, they are higher rise versions of the ones on the LTS, should look pretty cool , may have had a change of hart on the colour though, was set on cherry red metalic with a cream front and spears but now thinking gloss black with grey front and spears, was messing around earlier with satin black and grey primer and found they go pretty well together

New project quite possibly my new SS scoot

both colour combos sound good jimi black and white or is that a bit bland?

Glad you got the wheels back on track (see what I did there ha ha) will be cool to see the bike in the not to distant future.

Anyone up for a midweek jaunt?

Do tell and pics.

Fat look's like a rider, don't garage queen it (at least not right away). Oh aye, and what's this secret recipe for unsticking seatposts? Sounds like the bomber's coming together too, looking forward to seeing the paint job.

Aw'body seems to have a case of the Bob the Builders right now...

A univega alpina pro frame that " I beleive in fixes" has very kindly given me gratis should be here in the next few weeks so will post some piccies up later- geared or not to gear that is the question?

 

[zigzag]

Ah! I saw that when he posted it in the FS section. Niiiice! It was a really good looking build, and I'm sure it will be again. I'm voting you gear it.

I really liked the Rat look, looks the baws as it is. If I was putting one together myself I fancied china blue with cream and adding some rust detailing.
