Frames and Parts

Scottish Friday

Shirley is an also ran...

The clear winner is Turbo's BT.

As we scrolled over pics from the recent NAHBS reading how 'master painters had applied their trade' to certain frames - we shut our mouths, knowing this was going to blow them all out of the water.

Even if tartan ain't your style, this will grab ye by tha short n curlies!

Tulloch Ard!

Great job Turbo. The only things that could make it better are dust caps for the cranks smiley

Thing's gorgeous in the light,Turbo!!Mmmmm-tartan carbon rims,,Zipp ceramic bearing hubs.....then it's finished!Crank dust caps on a track bike-I think not!!You want to be able to easily check every bolt on your bike if you actually ride it hard!!Sorry-crank dust caps're my absolute pet hate on bikes>smiley

You want to be able to easily check every bolt on your bike if you actually ride it hard!!


Typical friday night, during warm up, Jeremy Storie gets on the mic:

"There is a loose crank bolt in the infield. Everyone check your crank bolts when you come off the track."
Dr Tom on March 07 2008 21:44:17
ronasaurus, deltaentropy: fair call.
Dr Tom on March 07 2008 21:46:55
I mean, 'duh, I was being ironic noobs' smiley
ronasaurus on March 08 2008 08:33:12
sorry Dr Tom-I'm so irrational in my hatred of crank caps that it has completely blinded me to irony!
Darrell at Llewellyn bikes on March 09 2008 19:21:03

You should be proud, and by the looks of it you are! Well done! I just want to be sitting on your wheel when your riding around the track in that kilt, the sight would burn your eyes! hehehe
