When do entries close? I need to get some decent pics in the sun but will probably only be able to do that the weekend of the 22nd as Ill be away until then.

Id hold off Glen..... April BOTM is looking good with this lot blowing their beans early doors!

Can i enter my dp again as i didnt stand a chance against the mighty leary

Brandy Truffle · « **Reply #27 on:** March 11, 2009, 10:35 AM »

Don't wanna put a cat amongst the pigeons here...but Justins Raleigh is not what it seems.

Looks to me to be the re-issue Team Aero Pro Frame with the brake cable holders removed. The rear dropouts are identical to all the re-issue Aero Pros..not like the original old school Tange.. I only ask as I'm up close and personal to an 84 Team Aero Pro I'm working on right now

And does it make a difference in this comp anyway to what is a nice build?

Thats correct Brandy Truffle mate !!!

The frame is a 25th TAP wich i striped down and and built back up to a better stanard and colour scheme

Ie : White alloy hubed Tuffs / Tange forks / custom decals /Custom pads / Suntour stem / Chain guard etc etc

So what we do have is still a CUSTOM TAP !!!

Well whatever, it's still a great effort! Lotsa work went into that then!

Thought it looked odd compared to my '84 frame. Good Luck Buddy

looking good that Paul!! nice build mate

Cheers matey...you know I want your Hyper to go with your old MCS

PS: Thanks guys re the other comments, I was a bit worried about putting it up as it's not 'a purist' bike, but Pickle's comments about taking part convinced me to stick it in......I built it in March and chuffed with it so thought what the hell why not

Gotta say thanks to Greg (Motomag) for selling the frame and forks in the first place, props dude
