DELIBERATE bike completed






Hi all. Been a busy few months, and we're sorry for the lack of posts, but we're getting back into the zone again. Thursday night saw the completion of the DELIBERATE bike for Emma at the BE DELIBERATE HQ. We headed over there with a bag full of parts and tools and got down to some late night assembly. Everything went very smoothly and after a couple of hours, the DELIBERATE ride was complete. Check the pics and see what you think.

Peugeot Conversion update



Hi everyone.

Been a while since the last post, but we're still here!! The Peugeot is about to be sprayed white, and Emma from Deliberate hooked us up with these bars from the Raleigh 'EQUIPE' which is now converted up to fixed gear for her company 'DELIBERATE. Started to polish them up today to see how they look. A bit more elbow grease and they'll be ready and waiting to adorn the bike.

DELIBERATE fixed gear conversion update



We got a pair of Panaracer 'stradius sport' tyres from www.sjscycles.co.uk and fitted them yesterday. It is really coming together now. The bars were cut down about 50mm each side and will have soyo long grips, which will cover the bars right up to where it flares to meet the stem. There is no sweep on these bars, with gives it a very solid looking stance. Stay tuned for completion!!

DELIBERATE fixed gear conversion update


Been waiting a while for parts to come in from various places on the planet. Most recently are these Nitto risers from Tokyo Fixed Gear. Really nice amount of rise and pretty light too. Hopefully some soyo long grips will arrive to be fitted next. Also a nice pair of Velocity 'Deep V' in white, laced to Origin8 hubs in white also. Chrome Spokes and nipples for the classic touch. This bike is starting to come together!
