1982 Diamondback Harry Leary Turbo (custom)

Hey

This is my 1982 Leary Gen 1 geometry, this frame was produced in the first six months of production, before that is they changed the rear dropouts as Harry had complained of wheel spin.

I know its not to original spec but I have put on this bike the parts i would have had on it if i had owned it back in the day.

Nice build. Bollocks to factory spec. Build what you would ride.

Build looks good buddy. I like the little bits of red added although, I would lose the front brake on it, with it being a racer, but that's just me. You carry on building them how you want and make sure you ride them too  :daumenhoch:

Looks great. Like the red pad set as a finishing touch.  8)
