Very nice Jon

, sort that chain , it hurts my eyes !

jon016847 · « **Reply #14 on:** September 13, 2010, 05:25 PM »

Ha Ha , we all know the chain is wrong .... it was a good idea for abot 1 second when i hit buy it now, and then realised it was never going to work, chain will be sorted

Exciting times, just opend a box, and it contained the 24" gold ukai speedlines with polished side walls , campy hubs, mint condition, they are sexy .. Crusier here we come

Cash is king I reckon , call him

Would love to, but I am paying for another property whilst working in Cornwall, so cash is not as free flowing as it should be, paid of all my credit cards last year and have promised myself not to go back down that road . Its defo next year for the frame and forks, Hunting the parts are keeping me happy right now .. I'll keep it in mind though
