at last, my first build is done!
« on: August 20, 2009, 02:31 AM »
Feels like a decade has gone by since I bought this F&F!

My first build in 23 years. it took me such along time to get it done, My wife finally took an interest and now it's hers.

A big thanks to all those who helped me with parts and info, and an extra special thanks to driverchris for his patience, time, and photography :daumenhoch: and Stodge for answering all of my dumb questions :smiley6600: (and building me a new-school bike while I buggered about with this one)

Hope the mix of new and old parts doesn't offend you all too much, it was always being built to ride >:D

Very nice ,im liking the gumwalls .

Not that keen on coloured tyres personally ,think those suit it down to the ground  ;)

Is it a late performer ,cant remember the difference with the platform ?

Is it early level or late level  ???

Looks lovely that, I would say late 84, early 85.

The early performers are so sweet, standing platform looks so much better from middle of top tube ;)

I'll get me coat :D

Good job!  what KHEs are they?  didnt know they made skinwalls

KHE Lamello.

I'm not sure if they still make them! I think they might be a flatland tire?

I'm sure someone will be along any moment to plug the hole in my ignorance! (I didn't mean for it to sound like that)
