[Mikku]

BOTY, right here! Certainly gets my vote!  A couple of questions:- what year is the frameset and what's the chainring?

[dp and chopper dude]

I've never been a fan of race bikes but bloody hell I love this one! 
What year is this one?

[monkian]

Always enjoy your builds Phil.
Real labours of love and absolute quality

[sawzall]

it's early 80's and the chainring is a sugino 42t

[Jaan]

Nice Phil, was the Sexton stem unsuitable/unusable?

[Andy68]

My apologies Dave.

Love it,a lot of history in that as I live in the same suburb as the original Sanders shop and went in it a few times.
My mate had an SRE as well .

Spanking nice Phil, great job on the restoration 

[NORTY40]

Awesome , as always Phil 

I was admiring your collection at MK again this year , all cool bikes but you do seem to have an obsession with radial lacing    ........ Love it myself , just looks so clean 

[sawzall]

sanders racing were the first to use radial lacing on bmx,

and after first seing it on there bikes i just loved the look

thanks for all the kind comments
