Good work Kev, looks ace. If you fancy going fat/thin on the tyres, I have 1.75s on mine, done 10 laps of preston from new, I would happily trade a thin fer a fat

Niiiiice. The axles look short, are they 80's race hubs ?
Id like a challenger xl. Smashing frames.

Another stunner

cheers guys

cheers diggler but i prefer it with the 2.1 on the rear

yeah they are late 80's early 90's titan race hubs, quite rare apparently, the axles are a little short, the dropouts are slightly thicker than the ones the hubs were designed for, it dosent help that ive used 4 washers per hub

Loved these from the first time i saw Marks (Betty's) ... can't remember if this was his or whether he still has his but either way it's a cracking looking bike

Nice pedals too
