New Ride

Just wanted to stick up some pics of my new commuter, got the frame of italian bay for £80. got the rims from the states and most of the other bits were second hand. I wanted to get another Moser to go with the lopro (sick of worrying about it at work) really pleased with how it rides, got some yellow strapes to add that i grabbed from Track star yesterday..

thanks to Alex and the guys at Cavendish for help and building...

i like this conversion a lot. apart from the pink outer, which is disturbing but i can't quite work out why.

Nice. ('cept the pink)
I used a texta to colour over the white text on my black calipers.
I'd lose the stickers on the rims too.

Brink the cable to a closer color to the decals and it would work. its a little peach and light.

thanks every one!
Thae cable is actually neon 80"s cable. it doesn't really show in the picture in the flesh it looks quite good. Wanted to build it quite cheaply so used all the bits i had kicking around in the kitchen!!

thanks for the shopping lowdown!!

It can't be very convenient keeping stuff on top of your chopping board like that? Nice bike by the way.

Hey, i noticed your lo-pro plus white spinergy in cavendish yesterday. Is that thing for sale/sold? I'd have loved the spinergy...
