Old man syndrome, just saying hello
« on: January 22, 2012, 09:21 PM »
Just saying hello, finally got to register after weeks of closed registration :crazy2:

I'm old so into old/mid school. Current ride is a 2000 GT performer retro'd up, also just building a generic (GT style) frame old school ride for my youngest son. :)

Oh sounds interesting, shoot me a PM with the details.

I've sorted a seatpost of sorts, I cut the post off an old stem, made a nice chrome stumpy  ;D I've Just taken it round the block and its not a bad ride, very light and easy to hop.

It is very similar indeed. The frame had a couple of decals on still, Concept cycles ltd, on the head tube and Norseman on the down tube, also a hand built decal on the seat tube, I've tried google but come up with nothing!! would be interesting to see how it was new.

 Added a pair of NOS Acorn Mags, these are a cream colour, hoped to bleach them, but think it wont make much difference :crazy2:
I may dye them at a later date, but leaving it for now!

What do you think? Think my boy will be happy with it! :)
