Nice  score  ;)

A very light sypathetic resto ,,,more of a clean up ,,if you have to


Two reasons

 you will lose it's irreplaceable character/ history

and

you will lose money doing a full on restoration , which is what it will turn into eventually if you start with certain parts  ::)


Some good advice on here ,, but it's your bike  :daumenhoch:

and you know its original. not some taiwan copy crap. ;D

Those framesets were manufactured in Taiwan so a load of dodgy Tai parts would probably suit the bike perfectly.   ;D

Seriously, I think it's a nice bit of kit and shouldn't need too much spending on it it to get it looking nice.  When Vert-Ego and Skatepool had a load of these framesets for sale every week, you could pick up a built-up example on eBay with a lot of NOS parts fitted for a monkey (sometimes less) so that's why the old guard think it's a bit pricey.  Those frames are long gone now so prices have gone up a bit since.

Does the guy have the fork standers?  I'd have to have a set on it but they are going for serious coin nowadays aren't they?

Fork standers i've seen go for over £100 also, pees me off that people split these for profit, they should be with the original frame/forks  :knuppel2: anyway £500 was I feel a good price indeed, I reckon a wipe over, pump up the tyres and ride the fook out of it  ;)

Just what I was thinking, so where did you think it was made   ::)

BTW some of the best bike frames in the world are now made in Taiwan, they have been making most of the bikes in the world for the last 30 years  :)

I guess I feel it's expensive because I remember buying complete factory spec Nos 85 Masters for £450
