i picked up a custom made mid school frame when i was living in the netherlands. I've never done anything with it. it's a wierd looking thing, intergrated seatclamp, oversized top and down tubes, 20.5" top tube, 1" threaded. it's made by sjappie bikes. they only made them for dutch riders and i only bought it because it had LG's and a pro neck on it. it is 14mm axel though. I'll make some pics later. Should be alright for a wobble in birmingham. bought some rims off joe, got enough other bits to build it up. Fook knows about the geometry of it, but i'll make some measurements, the guy i got it off was as tall as fook, about 6'4" and it was built especially for him. I just hope it's not too big.
am i better with a gyro? wasn't gonna bother. do i need a front brake? any advice on building a sound machine is welcome

I like your cellar, is it soundproof ?
That frame looks good for ramp blasting, build it nice and heavy and get some 100psi tyres on it, it'll be unstoppable

it's very light, fooking seatpost is stuck though. it's coming to work with me in the morning and it's gonna get liberated from it's seatmast prison. i need a new ad990, i've managed to lose most of this one
got bars, wheels are on the way, gonna run 401's on it, custom paint job(to be arranged the morrow) nice thick dropout forks, not sure what to do for a front brake yet, red dx's for pedals. got some comfey primo grips i've had around a while. just need to get a new post and seat. still undecided over the stem. got 2 weeks to get it done
