Nothing as lush as a new frame, but I bought a KHE Astern freecoaster hub laced to Chrome Easy O rim.

See if I can stay on my bike going backwards now i won't need to pedal

Mind I have trouble staying on going the right way

Got a call today, And cant get the frame I want, Been offered a Cooper one, Or a black one

I think it might be a conspiracy though between my wife and the bike shop.

Thinking about getting the Copper one to match my hair

Ah gutted!! Can you not the one you want anywhere else?

That's a shame Gaz........copper sounds nicer than boring black

darksunday · « **Reply #15 on:** October 10, 2012, 08:47 PM »

order a custom s&m, they'll you do a flat clear frame with the same specs as the fit,
and it'll be yours,

john4130 · « **Reply #16 on:** October 11, 2012, 05:13 PM »

just get the copper and a tin of nitromors.

Had a chat with SBD last night about finishes. And have ordered the ginger one. Also went for ginger as they offered a bit more discount. Have asked to see if I can get a spare set of decals for when it chages colour at some point..
Looks like nobody wants a ginger frame

pickle · « **Reply #18 on:** October 11, 2012, 08:34 PM »

Looks cool Gaz

Gary72 · « **Reply #19 on:** October 13, 2012, 08:55 PM »

Picked up my Ginger frame today, Now doing an Ed and trying to resist building it.

Yep, But my Sky high bars in chrome are yet to arrive, So might have to borrow some black bars from my race bike or pit bike.
Also I have to fix the after school club bike that has been in the house for 2 weeks before I'm allowed to build mine.
