Re:

picked this up today from a cheap bike shop, skf bb has been butchered by somebody (obviously didn't have the right tool) so that'll be my first job.
Did these come with stx as standard?

Just managed finally to get Hope C2 caliper No11. Been a long wait :D

A shame theres no No8, though someone did say there was in the O2 calipers but I cant find one. There is a No8 in mini, but im not sure it would suit the project.



Just need to come up with a nice back piece, and the quartz clock mechanism.

Re:

A nice back piece, Tioga disc drive? Or just one of the disc wheel covers. Would be a big clock though.

Are you going to use fork lower legs as hands? A spoke for the second hand?

What do you have planned for the cuckoo?

Lower legs for hands :shock: Bloody hell, this isnt big ben im building here :lol:
The quartz movement can only do small lightweight hands.
 
Another wee edition to the collection. Bargain I though :D, and ive the matching rear also nos.

Happy Bunny :D

I seem to be propping it up myself :lol: Though I'm not sure that such a good thing.

and no doubt some have guessed the only reason is to show off the latest Hope purchases, and this time its just as good.

Front and rear Hope Sport disc.
Bit of a mismatch with 36h front to a 32h rear, but this late in the game I'm happy to be adding them into the collection.
Boxes are remarkable clean, they've been hidden away safely.
*To the other bidder. Sorry buddy :)


This will have to count in the last bits I intend to buy for the collection. Pretty damned expensive adding it all up.
Maybe a mk2 cable brake(the black version) could finish it.
