ZZ - That is an awfully awfully nice looking stumpy. Liking everything on it.

I think brown leather bar tape on the 'Dale would look the part.
Maybe taking the front end of the Charge Plug courier bikes. and put some cards on the rear wheel spokes.

 

[clockworkgazz]

yeah agree lads, the red tape was what I had in the shed but black or brown would be heaps better.

and I kind of regret bailing on the stumpie, looks great and is even better on the saddle sp-to-speak.

 

[jimjim2012]

understated classic look. would be very nice on the 'dale.

either that or purple/blue anodising crazy.

^ This and a nice broon spoon.

jimjim - something to go with your Jamis http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/MOUNTAIN-BIKE...mQQptZUK_Cycling_Clothing?hash=item3ca67b6de4

velo - If its any use, I've got a spare 16t SS cog if you've got a cassette hub and some spacers.

 

[jimjim2012]

Thanks ZZ. Will watch that.

or maybe a Brooks. Used to have one on my Kona and have to say it probably is one of the most comfortable saddles i've had.

 

[clockworkgazz]

nice call lads, might be able to cut that bullhorn handlebar to look like an approx copy.....mmmm

not sure I want to do the 1000miles to break my brooks in :shock:

need to fine tune the gears and awaiting a headtube decal but the mini clockwork is done

just the yo and vega to complete and both are a couple of parts away, now I've got no excuse not to go out on the bike, been a lazy bas of late.

Gaz, I got some black cork tape, still in the packet from Halfrauds if you'd like, let you have it cheap

Amazed at the dispatch time of a component I bought over ebay. Bought an 18T BMX freewheel yesterday at 1pm from a shop in Hertfordshire, had it in my mitts by 8.30am this morning :shock: :shock: and that was by the soon to be destroyed Royal Mail

Danscycleworkshop I'm well impressed
