Ok guys ive had this ticking away for a while now to get it right including the famous super rare front fleccy and finally finished it today. note this is its own fleccy not pinched from my team pro . It was originally a team pro so that protected the lovely chrome for all these years , Took ages to pic all the little bits of paint out of the welds . Enough from me and heres a few pics :wink:

and lastly as i was feeling in a christmas mood i thought i needed a pic infront of the tree so i could see what it would have looked like .

Good work done there

, was gonna say the front of the seat needed tilting up slightly but in the last pic it looks as though it's been done

Looks ace that, you said it was a team pro, what was that like then?

I'm doing a TAP at the minute, and that certainly wasn't chrome under the paint!

I'm not ever so familiar with burners....

Very nice but you might want to rethink calling reflectors 'fleccys' as it sounds well gay

Love an Aero Pro - hate a burner. $:-\$

I must be a snob!

When Raleigh launched the Team Aero Pro they had some chrome ap frames already in stock. Some of the mint chrome frames were directly painted over whilst they were waiting for delivery of bare frames from tange. A few of these have surfaced over the years. A big plus side is, although the paint looks shabby and may need redoing when they are stripped some lucky people have minty chrome frames that have been protected over the years.

Top class as usual Neil
