I bought a 16” one recently and only paid £50 plus £25 to ship. Yours is probably a more useful size for more people and the sun is starting to shine so maybe you will get more. These are awesome frames but lack retro cool factor GLWS

Very nice. Loving the purple

Beautiful bike. I read your build thread a while back. Helmut was a good guy and very accommodating to us cycle couriers. Remember his shop on Robert street in Camden. He repaired a ribble frame for my partner and it was better than new. GLWS. Very tempting

Interested in purple bits particularly if not purchased by Antwack and can post 😀

Needs better photos too.

Fitted an IRD to a Roberts white spider recently. Seemed like a good option based on my research but can’t comment on the durability yet

Good information @bikeworkshop . Shame it doesn’t go over the axle though

I’m north east London so condor is definitely in range and and Brixton, BLB, plus there are a couple around Dalston that would be worth talking too as well. I’ll track one down one way or another. Well that’s nice that the owner turned up here at one point. Shame he didn’t have a stash of Bb...

Thanks so much for the detailed instructions @27motorhead I may give it a try if needed. There’s probably some people I could get to help if I get stuck. This is where’s my heads at - the local shop don’t have the tool either but reckon they could the bb out one way or another. However, I...

Interesting. Did you ever replace the cartridge bearings? I would keep it if I could . It’s not in terrible condition so might use it initially but I don’t like the fact I can’t service it without the 4 pin tool. Just waiting to hear back from lbs to see if they have the tool. If they don’t...

I know. Totally understand. I basically just said the same to my husband. Plus reminds me of the many conversations I had with customers on this very subject back in the days when I managed a bike shop.

Which reminds me. I shouldn’t be buying more forks until I know the BB’s coming out. Going to call the bike shop tomorrow

Well it’s definitely got me thinking. I may contact the seller and see if they can be persuaded to post or use a courier service. The problem with bikes is I was originally actually trying to get rid of bikes and parts but I’m just collecting more stuff 🤣 I’m sure that’s a story that’s been...

Thanks. They look great. I was searching everywhere the other week for geomax forks. Would definitely get those if I was closer to Norwich or if the seller offered a postage option

Thank you. It is rather nice. Excited to get it built up. Hopefully it will be a good fit for me. I’m 5 7”.

Shame it’s not 27.2 but will definitely give the seat tube a clean first. 😀

Seeing the disc wheels in it makes me think @bikeworkshop idea of getting a disc mount might be an idea somewhere along the line
