Sorry for the hijack Steve.

Post by: vincentframes on March 27, 2013, 08:32 PM: Hey radsters! Hope all's good with you all?!

Animal - I've just sent you a PM :daumenhoch:

I really don't think dad did bars for the race frames y'know, he's never mentioned them and it's not something I've come across yet....but hey I'm still learning and finding out stuff so who knows?! I'm seeing my dad on Saturday so I'll ask him....hopefully he'll remember ;)

Apologies for being quiet on here of late, full time work has completely taken over (when I started working on the frames I was part time) but I'm still finding frames out there and keeping in the loop and getting out on my bike as much as I can - I just can't get in the workshop much anymore >:(

Anyway, youse'll be the first to know if dad turns round on Saturday and says he did make some :daumenhoch:

Cheers,
Katie

I asked Katie on Facebook for you but was on the lash last night so didn't get to post up her response and I see she has beaten me to it!

Post by: vincentframes on April 01, 2013, 09:57 AM: Hey guys - I saw dad this weekend and he thinks he did make some, but given that I've just seen Phil's post, god only knows! He can't quite remember but can't imagine that he didn't...he reckons they would have just had a circular tubing cross bar on the top or none at all - I think it's safe to say that he didn't make any for sale and he didn't shout about it, it was always about the Rock Bars.

:D
