Well here is a work in progress. Thanks to Graeme and folkestone Flyer 1 and Wolfybmx for their help so far.

Still a little bit of work to go. But Alans should come through for me this week and it'll be finished and dialled in ready for Bournemouth.

very nice!
lovin the loop tailness
those imperial rings and flight cranks are the blinginess
-did you have to file the redline spacer-shim support

Zippy · « **Reply #5 on:** August 07, 2005, 11:41 PM »

There's a lot more bling to fling on this one.
The sproket and the cranks went together fine without any work needed.
I have to make a special mention to Tibbs Cycles in Canterbury for the excellent wheel building job they did. They spinn so well it's unbeleivable.

I like the loop, the OS style K-20 decal and the Azusa fork.......C L A S S I C Retro style

Lovely. You just need a candy red Brutus to go with it now.

Zippy · « **Reply #10 on:** August 08, 2005, 03:46 PM »

Too late San, bought a nice sparkly silver K-20 to go with it instead.

I am racing a Kappa K20 at the moment,and believe me it's hard to admit this........

It's the best bike i've ever owned.

P.S Did you know the geometry is the same as a HUTCH but with a 21 inch top tube!!!!!!!!!!!!

Zippy · « **Reply #12 on:** August 08, 2005, 08:44 PM »

Only the Seat , seatpost, bars and stem to go and it's finished.

Zippy · « **Reply #16 on:** August 14, 2005, 03:41 PM »

Ok, here's another update with how it looks at the moment. The seat and the post are from My Robinson, so it will still look a little different from this, I may also change the bars over, I've also got a Profile stem on the way so the GT cruiser stem can go back on that.

im loving the no plate very cool

Andy · « **Reply #22 on:** August 20, 2005, 09:37 PM »

nice ride,

what bars are you running???

are they slams?

Zippy · « **Reply #23 on:** August 20, 2005, 09:59 PM »

The bars are TNT Retro bars, really nice, although I may have to cut them down slightly as they're mega wide.
The number plate was thrown in for free by the bloke that owns TNT products. Super nice guy and his hubs are the sweetest I've ever run, Liked them so much I bought another set.

Moose · « **Reply #24 on:** August 20, 2005, 10:23 PM »

I think it looks pretty cool...and I love those forks.
