I would like to say what a great place skunkworks is - I haven't been personally but I gave them a call as I had a problem which needed a solution. Despite not being a customer, they were extremely helpful! Thanks a lot - next time I am down there, I will definitely drop by!

Ya what kind of bar tape do you use? Lizard skins? Which thickness? And do you get peeling as a problem?

Looks like Deda perforated. Ones carefully taped around the bar, very durable stuff! Just make sure to use matching color electrical tape underneath, or it will shine through :(

Tape is cinelli rainbow tape.
I like 18.mm lizard skin dps but stock the 1.8mm and the 2.5mm ( only in black though )

I also do a bit of busyman tape too he's really great to work with and the tape is amazing

do you know what seat stays are used in that speedvagen ?
looks epic !
I'm instructed in your business model i hope you don't mind asking,
would you say you run a work shop and facilitate on customer online purchases and stock some odd bits or does it go a lot further than that?
im curios and feel free to ignore the question i you feel its inappropriate.i worked the bike industry for most of my life and still have an unhealthy obsession with it !(-: if i didn't live on the other side of the island i would jump on bike and swing by !
thanks, mick, perth wa
