This page will be used to as a home page to all my posts related to the bike build. Europa is what the bike will be called once the build is completed.
Last Tuesday (27 Jan 2007) I had my two working bikes stolen from my garden shed, they took my Dawes touring bike (Callisto) and my Fuji mountain bike (Ganymede). The gits did leave 2 frames behind, an aluminum Trek 7000 frame and an unbranded steel frame with a few components on (forks/headset/handlebars/wheels).
I have decide to build the Trek frame into a bike because although the steel frame could be built up quicker and for less money, the components it has are all quite ugly and to make it something I would feel proud off would require stripping the components it already has off anyway.
Note: You can always get to this page via the Project Europa permanent link found at the top of the side bar (over there -> )
