The  Rain stopped for 10 minutes today, long enough to get a snap on me phone. I will take some more pics when the pads come and if it stops raining
Hope youz like it.
All done now, changed seat post, added a nice pad set and refurbed a diamond back kashi.
A big thanks to all those involved in helping me source the parts :daumenhoch:

Love a DB  :smitten:

That one young man is Stunning  :4_17_5:

So is the senior pro the same F&F as a HLT  ???
I might actually build a bike this year instead of just hoarding parts :)

I think the first few months were the same frameset ,, then they did an altered leverage angle on the rear dropouts for the HLT after a few months ..


I think that's what Sparky said about my HLT ,, He saw mine and called it a Mk1 2nd revision  :D basically about 6 months into production I think  :)



That Diamond back's a beaut , Steve  :smitten: :smitten: :smitten:

Where's Sparky when you need him ,, for all the questions  :LolLolLolLol:


Wasn't the Large Pro the earlier model with the double dropout forks ?  ???


Just to confuse us all a bit more  :D

Cheers for the comments lads :daumenhoch:

That sounds about right Christian, the large pro had the double drop out forks.

I am sure sparky will be along soon :)

That is friggin awsome  :smitten: :smitten: :smitten:  If i was to change 1 tiny thing then i'd put a chrome seatpost in rather than blue. Only my opinion though.  :angel:

My first ever proper race bike and i'd love one now.
One build a year, the only way to get it right. No rushing involved.

large pro's are from 79 - 81 and from memory have a longer top tube compared to the senoir pro.
senior pro was the replacement and came in around may ish of 81 from memory, the rear drop was changed after only a few months of production and has a slight downward angle.
