You are most kind. If you want a carbon how about Carbon Angus's 5500? One careful owner etc ...

Chris

Thanks Chris for the kind words. My LBS is taking the headset and BB off as I type, so just the frame/swingarm, working NR-2, an assortment of springs, hanger, seat-tube clamp and HammerHead will be sold together.

Also a possibility for the decals may be "Hammer" himself. The special 959 decals on my 5500 frame were made by him. He may have a source and/or a solution. I think he's still here. If not PM me and I'll get in contact with him for you.

If only I didn't a second 4500 frame hanging in the wall I'd be all over that! Good luck with it.

To all, I've received some really cool magazine articles from Dave so with the kind help of Colin they will posted on here very soon for all to read.

I would love to buy  that frame from  Carbon Angus it would be a dream for me  but will not be in a financial position to do so for approx 4 weeks due to work issues pay ect so would not want to mess anyone around.just hope another one will appear then.

Today I recieved some of the original decals that Mick aka k24000 won on eBay. Mick has very generously lent me the originals so as I can get copies made. Such a kind and trusting thing to do, especially as we have never met and only know of each other through this forum. I've awarded Mick some karma as good deeds should not go unrecognised!
Thanks again Mick.

Stumbled upon this link: http://veloink.com/  Not sure if it's relevant here or not...
