cheers for that, just put my order in for a 60cm, hopefully should be here middle of the week (fingers crossed) been eyeing one up for a while! im actually quite fond of the paint, though we will see how long that lasts!

Nelson cycles are distributed through cyclebasket online, exclusively i think. The track f+f represent really good value for money

Just picked up a set of Shimano 600 hubs laced to oldskool Mavic reflex'es for the pink Rossin :)
Rims are not very worn, and the hubs look great.. spokes suck a bit since they appear to be cromed and not stainless (a bit of rust a few places)... It'll do for now :)

Sounds nice. Why not rebuild them with DTs? Or just wire-wool them and service the bearings.

What finish are the rims?

silver finish... Don't really wanna spend that much on the ol' frame.. :) I'm only going to be ridin' slow and long on it.. 200km, 400km, 1200? :)

I think if I remove the stickers on the rims and clean them up a bit they'll look just fine... :)

Since I'm going to be wanting a low low gearing I'm thinking about using a crankset with smaller rings, like a 32/42-set if thats even possible.. Last audax I did I was running on the 39 on my campy equipped Fondreist all the time
Alternatively I could run a MTB cassette, but that's a bit ugly.. :)

Whats the smallest ring that'll fit a 130BCD? :)

edit; 38 it seems... Think 110BCD is what I'll need..
