...and, what paint will you go for ?? :)

Good luck with the project. Looking forward to the result. Any effort going in it is worth it. They are great chassis.
 
one day I hope to have a fat too :( , need a bigger shed first tho :idea:

lucky bugger
 
Ditto on that, never ridden a Fat either, but they look so right!

Is there any truth that steel frames loose their ping after a certain period?

That is what the lbs wanted you to believe in the past, before the industry made bikes disposibles (so you have to buy new anyway) and when there was less innovation

Nice SLIM, will be interested to see what colour/scheme you go for.. Also where you get it done ;)

Great you can get the frame and forks done at the same time too for a perfect match :cool:
