What can be said Pete? Brilliant thread and an absolutely stunning build to show for all your hard work. What a cracker, different class! I'm glad you got to finish her before she finds a new home. Family trumps all, I hope things work out for you all, wishing you the best.
I was worried about you and was about to stalk you and find your bmx museum account to pm you there lol. All OK dude?
Get ready for the Jane off mofo
I'm good thanks, just took a little break. Mum gave us a scare recently and she was my priority.
Jane off yours will be an immaculate custom build, when I get around to mine it will be nothing of the sort I'm still thinking a rider rat is the way to go for me, even with the goodies you donated. Unless you want to refinish my frame

Right so after a deep breath and a fantastic night's sleep I am now more relaxed. I have decided not to rush, as I will only ever build a bike like this once.
As such I am not happy with the white brake levers. These were 21 quid and I know they are very well received (made by Litepro, CNC)
What was not cheap however, were these.
Like I said, I will never ever do this again so I want to do it once and do it right.

Cinelli grips came in today. This is all starting to get a bit stressful tbh. Things being delayed, RM not even bothering to show up and then counterfeit grips. They are fake, btw. Seems there are a lot of them out there atm so be careful.
Going to chill now. Between putting mum's house back into one piece after the decorator came (never again) and chasing crap around it's been a stressful week.
Happy Easter all. Eat plenty of lamb and stay dry.
