Firstly thanks to Bodamus for the trade

I needed a longer TT for O/S racing as the Kuwi Survivor is tiny and I kept bending seatposts (usually with me knackers

) and banging me knees.
So here is my new steed, O/S legal Kuwahara Champion 21" TT and not a layback in sight.

I have not built this to be O/S purist, it is to blast (or gently wobble) round a track as it was intended.
Having raced 3 times now and really enjoyed the racing and the company

I deemed the frame change necessary

not put the Decals on yet (thanks again Ian

may leave it for a while till I have jumped it and got used to it

I like the looks of that for OS racing (headangles not too steep as to cause heart attacks when going down Hartlepool

)

my sort of bike

Phil people post bikes and get ribbed for not building with a chain ,,
but no cranks FFS

You'll need some serious pump action to get round the track

unless it's Hartlepool

Be good to see ya at a meet

I've never see a 'Kuwahara Champion' before... is the head angle not too steep or is it the seat tube angle that's making it look shallow?
