Brake lever is in the wrong position & the cable is untidy.

What do you know about pitch - look at all that money you've spent on hi-fi equipment and still you can't get it right  ;D

Nice nice, really dig those tyres, someone should do a modern tyre with that tread pattern. Nice to see a bit of campy kit on there too.

Colour was a factory option although there is some debate as to when they dropped orange and yellow in favour of chrome - I think this '81 sits right on the transition.
