Me Tarzan, you Jane.
« on: March 27, 2024, 02:32 PM »
Right, slow burner build. My last 20".

I bought a Jane frame about 2 weeks ago, but forgot mum was getting the house decorated so I asked the seller to hold off on sending it. It arrived today.



Eastern Jane. Early one, with the reinforced seat tube. Nice frame tbh and plenty heavy. Now I have 90% of the parts I need for this. Including some real smexy stuff. I will list that in a sec. Before I even bought that though I bought these.



I ran them under the scanner for someone as a favour. Now the Jane came as a complete. Full 4130, too. It was available in three finishes. Cleared raw, gloss black and gloss olive.

However, the decals I have only came on the black and olive. So olive it is (always wanted a bike this colour, almost did my STA the same)



I bought some of those RC cranks earlier (FSA, GT show, Mosh etc)



And my mate will be drilling this to 32mm. He just doesn't know yet  :LolLolLolLol:



I bought green bolts for it the other week, they have arrived.

And for now this will be coming off the T1 because the new bars on that need a big ole stem.





For a fork I have some mid school landing gear in yellow. I will get rid of the 990 mounts and repaint them.

All coming in a few months.......

This won't get moved dude. You're best starting again in the tech and resto section and deleting this. At least you're only a few posts in  "bump"
Low end French does it for me ! 😂

OK. So between getting caught up in the loft conversion sorta I haven't had much time. Any spare time has been devoted to my track bike. However, I decided on the colour for Jane.



Which is really ironic, because it is the colour the Barcode should have been. Talking of that...





Will finish it later tonight. This has liberated parts for Jane.



And.



The bars need refinishing. Any way, I also did a thing.





That is for Jane also. Well, when I get it drilled to work with these.

This is about as much fun to do as it looks.









Drops repaired.







Needs a wee bit more but I literally got bored about 3 hours in  :LolLolLolLol:

Don't have any primer either, so just ordered that. Will finish the last of it tomorrow, clean it and then put some primer on it.
