That is indeed a pk ripper - it used to be mine! Its in the museum with different bits on ity - I sold it on ebay with the very same one piece crank, chainring, pedals etc - the frame and forks I bought from a guy who had  had it powdercoated - its a lovely frame, and the forks are geniune real non stamped landing gears - a thing of beauty! Enjoy!!!

Thanks for the input guys. I am currently restoring it at the moment.

Just sourced some SE baby Blue pads from Germany and added the Z rims a while back. Once my house resumes some sort of order I'll get some more pics on here of the finished article.

In terms of selling,I may well do in the new year.

All the best.
