The next build nearly starts...take one nice Merlin

Why not paint the stem to match the forks?

Would retain the originality of the forks and I think would look pretty cool.

Minimise the other colours/banding seen and you might be o to a winner.

Fork does look smidge long though .....

Yup...the non-drive side is virtually rubbing on the stay with a 2.3 tyre.

I am not really keen on the camo Mark, but good idea
 
any idea where i can get hold of one of those disc brake adapter thingies? ive seen a couple on ebay but they seem to be quite crude...

Mine is the official Merlin one of the time...quite tidy it is too. Unsure if you can still get them :?
 
I'm a big fan of that camofork, think it matches the frame in a strange way. A matching paintjob for the stem would be pretty cool, great idea Mark ;)
 
Very nearly there...black hubs much better but I think black rims would be better too.
Weighs in at 20lb 4oz as pictured
