Ok I've clean up the frame and with help from Del (i've mocked up some laser printed decals) just to get the scale right, (ignor the colours)  the artwork will then be returned to Del to be properly printed.

Right then firstly a MASSIVE Thank you to both

Del and Dan (aka superbikedan)

Without the pair of you -  starting a project like this just would never have happen in the past

So here we go:

Frame arrived today from Dan's shop, we spoke quite a bit over the weekend about what I needed and Dan was very helpful and spot on:




Added some forks:


And some of Dels amazing decals...










Well all in all I'm over the moon with this one Thanks again Dan & Del  :daumenhoch:

I guess this is as good a place to beg:

If anyone wants to donate a knackered flight crank arm to this project I'm happy to 'buy' them off you. I'm looking for one drive and one non-drive to have chopped and shorten.  :daumenhoch:

WOODY  :)

Darren, as it is in essence a mini not a pit, I'm going to try for to go the whole hog and get a set of flights cut down to 145mm.

That way it Abigail will be able to ride it properly when she's old / big enough.
