    That's got potential to mess up underwear.

    Keep us updated.

    Few more pieces to the puzzle,
    Navigator Pista Tubs
    San Marco Ponza saddle
    And challenge pista 260 tyres.
    The tyres aren't glued on just wanted to see what they would look like!

  • So after a while of contemplating what parts to buy and earning the money to buy them! I have finally got it all.
    I couldnt resist assembling it all whilst im stretching the tubs before gluing so please note this is a mock up build built from a wheelchair too (apart from BB and Headset) hence why the chain isnt tight, saddle height etc.

    Unfortunately (may have seen my previous posts) a recurring back problem has landed me back in a wheelchair, this problem has totally ruined my teenage years! This bike for me is the light at the end of the tunnel. After two years of being well i wasnt expecting to be like this. I have been road racing the past two seasons and was mountain biking too. Just recently i have traded my mountain bike with another kind user on bikeradar for a cyclocross bike and obviously i have built the track bike. I intend to take my training and racing very seriously next season as long as i can shake this problem off!

    Now for the pictures:

    Managed to have a quick go on my track bike today :) Finally got it all together and finished, pretty proud as like my stevens bike i pieced most of this together from the confines of a wheelchair. The ride felt so stiff and responsive, cant wait to get it on the track.
