Local frame builder to weld on some disc tabs would likely be your best bet - dependent on how precious you are about original paint being removed in those areas. Personally, i think it's either a labour of love that you're willing to spend money on, or, accept that you either need another...

PMing with interest

Hiya Tim! Good to hear from you. At this rate it may end up just the two of us(!), do you have any weekends coming up in may that are unsuitable?

Came across this old RB ride from 2017 on my Strava feed, seems criminal not to squeeze a few more in(!)

Hey folks, ive been off the bike for some time but been putting in some mileage over the last couple of months and would love to head out on some more group rides. Anyone still around? Not looking for anything heroic initially, just a 15-20 mile cruise around the South Downs or anywhere else...

Long shot but I'd love one of these if anyone has one they can part with....

Food shout, I hadn't really considered it as setback but I suppose it is. Hmm, ok maybe it's time to hunt down an inline

😂

Possibly but I'd need to see how that would feel uphill, it's already a fairly laid back SA

I have a nice Moots Ti setback i'd love to use on this, alas it would leave me too stretched

Yes it's a real shame to see them go, they have lots of nice details that you just don't tend to see on mass produced bikes anymore. I'm already considering grabbing a Nature Cross or possibly Gorilla Monsoon frameset and putting away for a rainy day. You're probably right about the stem...

Cheers. Yeah sizing can be confusing on these, this is a 55, fits more like a 57. I love the old school features combined with modern performance. It has lovely neutral and smooth handling but is really stiff when I crank it, which as a Clydesdale is much appreciated. They're part of the QBP...

Just built up from frame and fork and I'm in love. So much so that I logged in here to post a shoddy picture or two for you all to be underwhelmed by, I'll come back when I've taken some nicer shots. Such a nicely balanced bike *chefs kiss*

Hi folks, is anyone able to assist with collecting a frame & fork near Shipley, Yorkshire - and shipping to me? (Brighton area)
