pics didn't load. does anyone bring pashley stuff into the country? saw a dude on youtube praising the pashley stuff.



The LBS in Hermanus used to keep a Pashley in stock, but it wasn't the Guv'nor. Sold a few to some of the retired folk in this sleepy little village.

Can ask him who the distributor is if you want...?

Daemon - sweet frame guy. I'm looking at the slot dropout inbred, can run geared or ss.



And Bos - with a porno fixie like that, you should be shot for not joining the mass this morning. Also, turn your stem the right way up

Also looked at the inbred and the slot drop out scandal, my problem with them are, if you ever do decide to run geared and you crash and bend your jockey you have a problem, no replaceable hanger. My scandal will be a SS as well, will just use a tensioner on the chain.

Mmm, I did think of that... but figured that steel frames are relatively easy to straighten if the worst does happen.



Paging JB or a framebuilder?
