So it looks like the plan has started to evolve already , to cheer myself up I've started to order a few nice parts and dragged my old frame (Kris's old Oki bike) down from the garage roof for a good clean up and to get it ready to build up.
Years of dirt and grime have had a good scrub , nothing worse than getting filthy when building something.

A good scrub has removed the dirt and grime so I don't need to use gloves to handle them any more , frustratingly during a couple of house moves the frame has picked up various scratches and marks , now I'm not out to build an immaculate bike but I couldn't live with these.
The frames are anodised if I'm correct so is it a case of having it stripped and re done or am I better to polish it off and wd40/scotch it and rub some acf into it now and then?

Waiting now for a whole host of titanium fixings, an ali headlight bracket and I need to get an order done with Rick Oliver to get the frame built up.

In my defense I've sold the majority of the first bike as one lot, it's off to a chap building a race bike for next year as a rolling chassis Inc the knackered engine , he's happy as I've sold.it cheap and I'm.haooy as I gives me some space back and more importantly some cash to spend.
