Looks wonderful! 5 years; you must be most patient man ever!

Thanks for the replies - it's appreciated. It's good to be able to post some developments on this at last! It's been at the back of the queue for far too long now.
Patient.....I'd like to think that - fitting in progress with house moves, house renovation, a 2yr old ( another on the way! ) and a classic car has meant money and mostly time has been diverted other ways.

2017 will be the year I finish this one! (.....hopefully!!)

Lovely, and great to see you back mate. :D

Cheers Ed - it's been far too long
Ironically, it was an inquiry about the skateboards on the 1st page that got be to log back in. Had been watching from the sidelines but no new developments in my projects kept me quiet.

Re:

So…. after a 5 year pause in progress, Assembly finally begins.

Bottom bracket and headset went in no problems…

Threaded insert on bottom of stem/steerer keeps dropping out when fork crown tension applied - will definitely need bonding in or failing that, a new insert making up.

Magura mounting brackets need to be anodised, as does the crown. Looking to get this done in a grey similar to the frame colour. Currently using the spare black anodised crown that will be used for the RC35 ….. easier just to swap out the legs and crown rather than disassembly.

Magura levers need to be cleaned next, before adding cables and chain.

Been in touch with Gil_M about decals. Hopefully will be sorted soon.

More updates soon….

Cheers all.

Fantastic progress - that is going to look so nice!

Getting there! Making up some copies of the chain guide piece under the bottom bracket. You're probably holding back until you know more about your one Ringo, but I'll make one up for you just incase.
Hopefully there's a positive outcome coming soon :?

Cheers all.
