Another 12 month project (well nearly)
« on: May 18, 2015, 10:33 AM »
Nothing as expensive as Andy's amazing VDC but this is my 1980 DB Senior Pro.  I picked the frame up last year at MK but needed forks, after a chat with Sawzall it transpired he had a set of Pro forks which he'd 'fixed' and needed a rechrome.  Olly did me a big favour by picking them up and dropping them off at his chromers, then sending them onto me, Del did the decals for me and Steve firebird did the pads.  Poolysheriff was his usual superb self and sent me the seat post and shim (plus a great deal on the bars) and i picked up the seat as a bargain on evilbay.  Looking forward to getting it finished but it will take a while as my choice of crank seems to have put a few hurdles in the way  ;D

I can't say I ever wanted a Diamond Back as they seemed really short and stubby with awful steering back then. They do look good though, especially the senior pro's.

You thinking of HLT cranks Rob  ???

No Terry, Stronglight 93s, just need to get a 45 or 44t ring now and a BB for it.
