Nice day today, got me thinking about sunny pub rides and realised i'd got nowt to ride, so I chucked this together earlier than I'd planned...
Got the F&F from Gaz Poolysherriff a few weeks ago, my long term plan is to do a repop tribute to the first ripper I ever saw back in `81, which belonged to a kid in our village.
Funds are a bit tight at the minute, so its getting ridden `as is' this summer, and the `tribute' is my next winter project.
When done, it'll be white with black bits, repop'd kashi, twin pinchers, mushrooms and maybe even DCmx1000/Tech2 repops if I can get a brake bridge to look right and welded in, (removing the canti mounts!) The stem is an oddyssy GI, which is a close as I'm getting to the inverted proneck Steph had on his `81! pedals are fly ruben graphites, a new take on MKS graphites and in the shed already!!
The only `old school' bits are the chainring and spider and the NOS (until today) win CW's
It won't please everyone, but I can't justify a real one for a pub bike!!
