For sale: Liam O’Brien frame

tumblr_li3bkoVZ2v1qbpwwio1_1280
So I’m jumping on this stuff for sale bandwagon with my O’Brien track frame. This is an old pic, but it’s still in amazing nick (will chuck a fresh one up this weekend).
This frame’s a one-off by frame builder Liam O’Brien. It’s made out of Reynolds 753, it’s got super tight clearances and a sloping top tube. The seat tube and top tube are 56cm.
It comes with a Phil Wood bottom bracket and Dura Ace headset.
NZ$600
I’d really like to sell it to John O’Brien, but he didn’t leave his contact details with his comment on the bike check. So, if you’re out there, get in touch.

The weather is simple incredible right now and it seems like this endless summer sun shine has given everyone a summer to remember as one spent doing things we like. For me this summer has meant a few awesome trips on bikes around the coromandel. DSCF0513I finally had a chance to give the bike rack a long haul trip. All and all it was pretty good and the only think that happened was some funny looks from strangers. The first part of the ride was from Auckland though Hamilton. A stop at a Funeral, RIP Martin, and on to the Patch Trails for A dirt jump jam! showed up pretty late and the crew were starting to shut it down so not much riding for me.DSCF0515

DSCF0516After Cambridge I took off towards Coromandel, after a solo ride for about an hour thought some amazing roads with no markings and even some gravel I ended up at a roundabout and meet up with some of the crew! pure luck! we gave a few high fives and kept rolling to Kev’s only problem is we got there pretty late so I missed seeing my favorites Rob and lola.

Slept out side next to the fire and in the morning this little guy came and kept an eye on things.

Kev has a sweet as river heading up his property and is always the best way to wake up after two many beers and stories from the crew.

On the way back to Auckland Dan crashed his bike in an absolute crazy to be alive up hill ditch ride! somehow he came out unscratched and we were all pretty happy about that! However his bike was jacked!
