When I last went there this beauty below was still being assembled.
Now complete, they are entering into the national build-off.
Dropped my wheel bits off to 'Dave the wheel guy' near Heathrow. He was taught to lace wheels by the guy who laced the royal families pram wheels apparantly . I was impressed by his name dropping skills :)
My wheel is 2nd in line to be built after Chris Barrie's wheels (the guy who played Rimmer in Red-Dwarf).
Mine will be 17" x 5.5" with 80 spokes. All polished stainless steel (so no rust from all this rain we are having)
I've also received my 17" x 200 wide whitewall rear tyre through the post.
Only 2 manufactures do these. Mine came from Vee tyres in Thailand.
My bike will be pretty well travelled before I even start the engine!
