Thanks to the gay pensioner for the frame and forks, Snav69 for lots of other bits. Spen for the rims, Firebird for the awesome pads!  :4_17_5:

Hope you like it?

Bit of a theme at the minute, but if you have a single red sharp lever cover I could use it please.

Thanks for looking,

Sid..  :daumenhoch:
