nice!  i'm sending you enough to space thet stem out top and bottom if you want to mate 

[perry]

cool

does the stem clear the toptube ? id put a 5mm spacer in . i had a cable get trapped between my toptube and redneck years ago , ive now got a scratched redneck  

ride it with the spacers for a while and decide how high you want it , would look clean cut though

36/13 or 28/10 is standardish

im not sure what the thread is but how long is the bolt ? if its quite long loosen it off 5mm and tap with a mallet , should shift the axle along and loosen the arm

[pickle]

J what are the cranks?  if you want to get shot of them i might be tempted to have em off ya! 

[JT71]

the cranks are just what ever comes on the complete bike, got em from stevie B, the bike will be going as a whole, I only got the frame to use up spare parts,
well when i say spare, i mean parts left over when i got nicer bits for my Fly.

[Gary72]

Use the spacers above and below and shift around until you get the right height for you. IMO try and keep the red sprocket or swap it for a bigger red one, a bit of colour looks good. (Bar ends Trev will be along soon)

[Trev]

You rang m'lord?

[pickle]

the spacers should be with you this morning or tomorrow at the latest Joe! 

[JT71]

cheers Pickle.

this bike might become my bike and the fly might go, I just like the look too much. 

[JT71]

now I'm defo keeping this. it's real nice.

[pickle]

looks nice Joe but preferred the red sprocket 

[2020mad]

looks nice Joe, your bits put together is better than my real bike 

[JT71]

looks nice Joe, your bits put together is better than my real bike 

well, it ended up as putting some nice bits on, and now it's my keeper. fly is up for grabs but I'm waiting to see if steve beech ta wants it, and i know you might be worried about work too. it's cheap if you want 2nd dib dobs.

[pickle]

Mart if you can afford it then that Fly is a sweet ride!  bloomin light too!

[2020mad]

Let me know. i might not be able to afford it, however i may have a bit more time to go out riding during the day soon.
