Well in dix - lookin good mate.
I knew that frame would look sweet when i saw it on the bay in the US  ;)

Only bits i ain't fussed on mate is the spider and the seat and i reckon a set of gum wall tyres rather than black walls would set them ACS mags off a treat - other than that mate i reckon you've got your self a sweet ride there - have you took her out for a spin yet ?

The MKS pedals look good, just as they were bitd; bright  :LolLolLolLol:

Knobby tyres, a sugino or takagi spider, Shimano/DC 890/1020 brake with a Shimano DX lever and she'll look the business  :daumenhoch:

I'm sure theres a couple of sets of silver / chrome 901's in the for sale section - full sets used but decent con - around 25 quid i think 2 different threads can't remember what they were........... 'ave a dig around  ;)

That injury sounds nasty mate - take it easy when you try your first endo  :LolLolLolLol:
