 Shocked
I wasn't happy with my old Goose so it got a few changes today. All it needs now is a proper seatpost.
Damn hippies and they're bent freestyle things.  Grin
Got some more of the original stickers it had coming this week. Yay!
Cheers.

Have you got another one Tim? I would like one of those. I could just get this other one sorted.
Your right Allen. It's not going to crack again!

Coasty my mate who teaches me lathe work was back at shed today, I got 400 mm long post getting made will be hollow and i can put a mark 100 up it for min insertion, will test fit in a frame to make sure it will go in. Actually 2 being made, one for me and one to sell/ be conned out of by a Queenslander Tongue
Bought new bar for the job so it should look pretty until its been shoved in and out of a frame 20 times. If you put a smear of bronze grease on it it should still tighten up nice at clamp but not chemicaly weld itself into frame I'm told.

Thats great Tim. I'll let the conman know! Wink
Allen, the forks are early 90's uncapped forks I think and are chrome. They were NOS when I got them 4 years ago.

Ok I couldn't tell you exactly when they were made. I got them from  Rohan (mattblack) for doing a job for him and he got them off ebay. I think they went for $70.
