That's a nice bike there sig. Carlo! None other than Mr. Sakamoto's machine. WOW! Nice! Well, at least some of the dimensions are the same! That's a good start! Can you show me a dimension from the front lower fork brace to the wheel axle please? That way I'm not leaning too far rearwards like a chopper! Mille grazie. Kind regards, Steve

Ciao Steve, you make me do with a small drawing or a photo of how I must take the measure? I'm sorry but I do not see how I do. Of course it's my fault. I decide I have to study! ciao

Fantastic Carlo! Thanks so very much. Good work. These dimensions are very close, so that is a good sign. Now for phase 2..... Ciao Steve

Could anybody take a couple of photos for me of their rear wheel (brake side) and the calliper bracket setup please? I need to know if I'm heading in the right direction! Thanks, Steve P.S. If you aren't sure of my request, I can post some photos of what I require.

Folks, the frame is off to the welder to get some missing tabs welded on. When it returns, the wheel alignment & frame measurement method will begin. Let's face it, I have enough builders string line around here to wrap half round the world!
Cheers, Steve

; )Grazie mille Carlo! I will provide with a drawing/sketch soon.
However, I'm now finding that my frame has small issues with the location of the tabs that attach components. I have to relocate the rear M/C unit higher than where it currently is to allow a clear run of the link arm that is fitted between the brake lever (one of Carlo's beautiful machined parts) and the master cylinder lever. Just as I gather momentum for a clear run....I have to take 2 steps backwards. Arrrggghhh. It's all part of the build process. Guess that's why doing a dry build is wise.
Keeping you posted....
Cheers, Steve
