Break...

So I'm headed off to Peru in less than 24 hours so the Fixie project will be on hiatus until I return. But it'll go full steam once I do get back in 10 days. The frame is ready to be stripped of paint and parts are in the mail. I got the Shimano 105 brake caliper today. Everything looks good except it's missing the recessed cylindrical nut and the adjusting barrel. Oh well. Those shouldn't be too tough to get.

A Bulletproof Crankset off eBay is in the mail and will arrive while I'm gone (to my work address so it's ok).

Need to Buy:

• Chainring - probably a Sugino
• Lockrings - Dura-ace
• Cogs - IRO, 17t free and a 15t fixed
• Wheels - IRO - fixed free silver set
• Chain
• Toe Clips - metal w/ white straps
• Brake Lever
• Decal Paper

Planning on getting back on Saturday the 12th. I can strip the paint Saturday night. Polish and clear coat it Sunday afternoon. I'll order the parts above then too. Turning out not to be too expensive. The biggest thing is really the wheelset.

More when I get back...
