Prototype Birmingham WHEELS Expert - titanium

(1/12) > >>

dinglem:
Over the past couple of years I have heard several people mention that there was a titanium WHEELS frame made BITD; Big Trev Robinson has talked of this in the past also. I dug a little deeper and after much hunting I have finally managed to track it down  :daumenhoch: I collected it from the Brum WHEELS team manager this afternoon.

It's an odd-ball being of Expert geometry (18.5inch TT length), but has a Euro BB. The head tube has been machined to accept the headset cups as well.

I can't even begin to believe how light it is  :shocked:

It needs a bit of work, but here's a quick preview taster showing some of the lovely welds...  :smitten:

Well chuffed to have found it!!

The big question is.... Will it fullfill its destiny and be built up or is it to be a display piece?  :chin:
