On my Ebay wanderings I came across this expertly done drillum butchering.

just awful workmanship

Home drillum seems to be all the rage these days, just think about giving them a good squeeze on a super steep downhill. :shock:

I like the drilled look, up to a point, but I also like it to look authentic. I also like my skin ungrazed so I have this waiting to go on some bike or another, in due course and it looks brill. http://www.velobase.com/ViewComponent.a ... AbsPos=171

I've got a pair of those chainrings and in due course they will go on a pair of Campag cranks.

Sacrilage I know - but I like 'em and it's easier than drilling a Campag set!

In the olden days you used to use a centre punch before drilling

it prevents the drill bit from wandering around :facepalm:

I must get a pillar drill and a sense of humour.
