Brother will, thats what I'm waiting for, bidding on a CK sprocket and a Van Nic post. Sellers won't end auctions early ๐Ÿ‘ฟ

After that, just the chain that needs replacing with something a little more subtle, then raw and clear powdercoat the frame. Or if my bonus at work is any good, maybe a nicerer frame ๐Ÿ˜ณ

My new Cotic BFe, which is very nearly done. The chain ring arrived today so it was fitted and I drilled out the cable stops to run a full outer cable on the rear mech, but I still need a mech (SRAM X9 Type 2) and shifter (SRAM X0) to arrive from Germany to finish it. I'm also waiting on some olives and barbs to shorten the brake hoses. I shortened and bled the Reverb and heli-taped it today too.

Didn't think you could link to dropbox...

Try Flickr. (Had to borrow your pic) ๐Ÿ˜‰

and the cause of the delay:

decided to spray the half that was ready, rather than letting it oxidise and need prepped again...

I think the white cranks are a bit much tbh! But we'll see.

I have the superstar headset as well, how did you find it fitted? My bottom cup was nice and tight but the top cup I can pull out with my my hand, I have measured them with a digital vernier and the headset cup seems to be spot on but the scandal headtube looks to be a not quite small enough.

Makes no real odds once it is all bolted up but a bit of a shame.

It fitted just fine, took a few attempts to get in but thats more down to my home-made headset installer solution. Its now seated fine and shows no signs of looseness.
