Sucked some air through my teeth at the lack of specs on the drilling machine and the flappy open shirt. ๐Ÿ˜€

Here's a pic of my Soulcraft in Seans workshop, it's hard to believe it was over 8 years ago when i got him to build it for me.

Still the best frame/complete bike i've ever rode and Ben at Kinectics in Glasgow will hopefully be able to renew the front triangle on it.

I need to rip the frame building bit from the old York Films tv series - proper old-school frame building, by short blokes in flat caps, who use only a vice and a piece of string to line up their frames. It's brilliant ๐Ÿ™‚
