thats looking A1 mr philbert :coolsmiley:

Very nice Phil, very nice.
How come you went for a 44t chainring? I think it lets it down a bit, as its a bang up to date frame.
-
from the intel i've gathered i'm lead to believe thats what racers still use! unless i've been lied too?! it might get smaller as time goes by!

Fair enough. I know kack all about racing, I just like the look of smaller chainrings.

just to think phil ,i left one of them frames leaning up against the fence at rom and drove away :uglystupid2:
but saved by generalee and jay habishaw who spotted my little mistake :angel:
-
ffs......move the bloody bike and get some close up shots of that chair man :shocked: is it your "knock one out chair " ?

Lovely Philbert, Lovely.
I saw that frame for the first time out the back of James Hitchcox's van at the Harrow leg of Old Fools. I must admit I really like the laser cut drop outs. Very sexy.
Good work smelly bum.
-

Looks fast and dangerous. well me riding it would be dangerous. :4_17_5:
