*** NOW FINISHED **** SCROLL DOWN! *****

----------------------------------------------------------

Just picked this up after spotting it badly listed on ebay, collection only, but my uncle lived real near :-)

Not a massive GT man so didn't know much about it ... just saw the SuperPros and thought 'that's a bargain' !!!

Should be getting it later in the week... first job ... a nice soak in Citric acid!

Dai Leisure? tell me more Dan.

Is it a KHE bashguard?

Dai Leisure advertised in Ride mag in the 90's Ed - they went from a 1 page ad to a two page in the later 90's, but used to offer parts and completes (including ones they built themselves from the parts they sold). That Standard you picked up for Olly was one of the complete bundles they used to offer.

They were pretty decently priced to be honest, and truefact - they turned me down for credit in the 90's as I was a scumbag pot smoking student at the time.

Looking again though at that GT it might well not be a Dai special, be nice if it was though.

That grinddisc is either a KHE or a Teethgrinder one

Thanks for the info bud ... you a pot smoking hippy! NO!

I'm sorry to say that if it is one of those UK Toothgrinder ones then the Gay Sailor Olly has first dib dobs on it ... like I'd ever sell something I'd just bought anyway!!!!! the inference!

Wanted a quick turnaround on this so I popped into Wilkos for a bottle of that new RESTOREITRITE stuff from MidskoolJohn Ltd Inc...

Following the instructions I filled up the bath and stuck the whole bike in ...

20 minutes later I pulled it out and was totally amazed ... popped down the front in Costa del Melton and got a couple of pics on the sand ... stunning I'm sure you agree ...

I like your patio Ed

Will be up for some banana daiquiris on the 'chez-longe' sometime.

Looks like it is a Teeth Grinder - think the KHE's have a ridge round the edge of em. Shame your last name's not 'Case' as well:

Think we missed the rather obvious Spanner shaped decal mark Dan

Young Olly's keen eyes spotted it.
