Re:
finished my NEW work bike that is almost a doppelgänger of my LAST work bike... :facepalm:
story goes like this......
built a new voodoo frame up i won on eBay in 2014 as a work bike
re-wind 12 years or so..... i let a friend of a friend have my old Alves frame as i was in living in Glasgow not Elgin at the time and had nowhere to keep it (it was lying in a mates barn, neglected)
now, forward-wind those 12 years.... i got the chance of getting my old Alves back! so i offered my work frame and forks as a replacement so he still had a bike to use!
then, last month on eBay, i spied ANOTHER new voodoo frame in my size, so snapped it up! bought another pair of Salsa forks and hey-presto, an almost exact replica of the original!!
completed it this morning, shakedown run completed and yes, that is a big gear, i'm gonna have my work cut-out turning that!
