So nice, so so nice. I dont like chrome bikes, you have just reminded me why!!

"Race bike"? Are you going to race it? Sounds good to me, (although it really does look to good to use!)

Fecking lovely Rory - the red anno stuff looks the nuts.

It's gonna be a sweet sweet build mate.

yes stodge, i agree

looking forward to seeing it finished,
all the parts look spot on for it except the "dirty harry" lever, she needs a tech 99/77

i bid on a set of holmes stickers from the usa awhile ago, i think i dropped out at £42!

good luck finding a set, i'll keep my eyes open,

has anyone repopped them yet?

thanx all, i would like a better lever if any one has a rhd going,my buddy is working on this decal,does anyone know if it had a similar decal on
the down tube

dan, i think its a 93

As with all S&M decals (IMO) The originals were the best, John's face on the headtube says class to me!

Stodgy · « **Reply #7 on:** April 13, 2007, 08:33 PM »

What else are you after Rory?

i've only got a left tech77, but your welcome to it for free if you need it,

pedals, ody twisted would work too,

is that a santacruz bod boyle i can pike in the background?

teamsano · « **Reply #11 on:** April 13, 2007, 11:16 PM »

i have a set of holmes stickers you can have for 42 quid.

who's 'john' on the headtube?

i was always under the impression the picture was of rick moliterno... look closely.

sweet looking bike

SaMAlex · « **Reply #13 on:** April 14, 2007, 12:19 AM »

A shop near me has black widow and twisted pedals in stock. and tech99 levers. Let me know if you want me to get some for you.

I also might have a pitbull if you cant get one from Biagio

rory · « **Reply #14 on:** April 14, 2007, 02:19 PM »

alex , i would be very interested in those pedals and levers

Flying_fox · « **Reply #15 on:** April 14, 2007, 03:37 PM »

I'm loving all the S&M's on here recently, and that one is another beauty!

It's a shame the forks have peg bosses on them as it's set up as a race bike. That's in no way a pop at it, just my personal taste.

Can't wait to see it finished. Keep us posted.

rory · « **Reply #16 on:** April 14, 2007, 03:52 PM »

forks were the only minty pair i have , i gonna try and swap for pitch forks if anyone has some ,

no way!!! when i was there in october 1993 i thought the new stickers were crap, i suggested we sticker some black frames up with only this holmes 'penis' sticker on the toptube, i dubbed it the 'hardcore holmes' and if i remember there were only about 25 or 30 of them and Taj had one of those

SaMAlex · « **Reply #18 on:** April 15, 2007, 08:21 PM »

Grant,

Now you know where my HC Holmes frame went! It looks much better now, ay! I was way tempted to keep it when you told me the story.

I have a used Tech 77 here for the R/H/S
I also have a set of SS cranks that I would happily swap for those GT ones

DINGO

rory · « **Reply #22 on:** April 18, 2007, 03:04 PM »

pretty much done now, gona go riding tonight

dam , those bars are wide

SaMAlex · « **Reply #23 on:** April 18, 2007, 03:07 PM »

That looks sooooo good. Love it!

SaMAlex · « **Reply #24 on:** April 18, 2007, 03:11 PM »

The only things I would say are:

Change the forks from Ditch, to Pitch.
Change the seat clamp to a pozistop and take the flexi hanger off the pitbull.

Other than that its just to put a sprocket pocket on it so you can hit the streets as well as the jumps.
