I foresee this as going to be a major drain on my wallet. :tongue: Already pondering about getting a new bike for my commute, all completely bespoke. Then I think, what about something for the weekend, something that little bit special. Getting the feeling I am being bitten by the n+1 bug.

This could seriously damage your wealth. You may have to find another job, or get the factory to refuse entry to you :biggrin:

They make a really beautiful looking frame that for single speed. I am thinking I could get them to make me a fixie. Don't have to worry too much about hills on my commute as it is flatter than a billiard table, so there is not that much use for gears really.

I used to cycle past a custom frame builder every day on the way to work. couldn't help but stop and look in the window a few times.

I note you don't say *which* bike factory; if it's for Apollo/similar bikes I'd be tunelling to get out :tongue:

It is a small one in a unit on an industrial estate making high end bespoke steel and titanium frames.
