Nicest bike I've seen in a very long time....

It is a thing of beauty, but also of expensiveness and huge size. 😀
S'ok, I suppose, if you like that sort of thing
BD - Indeed.
ton'll buy it
Thanks for the (unsolicited I might add, given recent comments) bump PP. Price is potentially negotiable, especially if you don't want the dyno hub and light, that's a lot of cash tied up right there. Supernova E3 light is around £200, the Schmidt hub is around £170. So if you don't want those bits it'll bring the price down a fair bit.
Sam, it's lovely. I had to. Got any more pics?
🙂
I do but they're all on a hard drive which is not where I am now. Will get them up on the Flickr this evening.
I'd just like to point out that this is a normal sized bike 😉
its got fixed conversion written all over it.
erm....it looks to my untrained eye like a bike from the 1940s with discs on.
I'm sure it's very nice though. It would look great in a photo parked out the front of a quaint Peak District tea room.
Do not want.
I like the aesthetics of Sam's bikes a lot. They are properly timeless - less twee than the likes of Rivendell or Velo Orange, and easier on the eye than a sludge-coloured Surly. The luggage on that one is a bit OTT (it's Berthoud stuff isn't it?) but I bet it works well, and I'm sure the bike would look fine with modern style panniers too.
That's a bargain - the dynamo set up is worth £250 alone!
If I didn't already own two touring bikes I'd be raiding the piggy bank.
Tyres are a bit narrow for roughstuff though 😉

rear disc hub = shimano cassette pattern, unless you go down the Miche/Ambrosio cassette route which is pretty restrictive in terms of size.
10 spd Ergos work perfectly with 8spd Shimano.

That doesn't make it right thou does it.
Thanks for the pics Sam. It is a lovely bike.
And I now officially want a Singular
🙂
That doesn't make it right thou does it.
I'd say it's very right; comfort, ergonomics and tidy cable nature of Campag ergos, reliability and bulletproofness of 8speed Shimano. Yes, I've stocked up on 8 speed cassettes and 10 speed old shape shifters...
sam, what size in inches is large......
i was saving up for a foes 29r, but that is a long way away still.
