Hi Gang Now I'm waiting for the sprayer to finish my F1 rebuild I thought I'd collect all the leftovers from my first hybrid and start building another With room being a bit of a problem I managed to get a trolley to start the build on and it works so well I'm probably gonna get rid of the bike ramp that takes too much room when not in use Here's some pics from this morning Lc2 frame Rgv front and rear ends Mito rear end Once I got this far I just rolled it all into the corner out the way Now the real work starts

Hi Yogi There's no stopping you mate Gonna be another lovely hybrid by the looks of it, and the trolley looks to be the perfect height. That would actually make a really useful bike bench You better get a patent on it quick Dusty

Cheers Dusty It's a supermarket trolley that jumped in the van when I left the door open Thinking of getting a couple to save room in the shed There so easy to push in corners and surprisingly strong and sturdy with a bike on

Yogi, I like the headlight/instruments a lot. It reminds me of the LC reboot in CMM if you saw the article. I was thinking of that headlight on a future project but you have well and truly beaten me to it.
Keep up the good work, looking forward to your progress
Mark

Looking really good Matt
What Triumph side stand did you use? What else is entailed to fit the stand? I ask as I'm sure I'll have to make room for the three pipes on the 550 and I like a little forward planning.
Keep the pics coming
Cheers Mark

Cheers Mark Hi Mark Knicked the idea from mutts I cut the triumph Spring mount off and welded to the frame,you can drill and bolt if you prefer 3mm washer welded behind stand mount cos the triumph is wider,you can just use a washer Jobs a good un, Cheers Matt
