Retro Bike beginner...any advice?

Retro Newbie
Hello all,

I have recently bought a Sun road/race bike, in the hope of getting it back to useable condition (at least). I'm no expert in classic bikes, so I don't know much about this model - I've included a few pictures

Considering I paid peanuts for it, very much sold as seen, I wasn't expecting much. This is certainly going to be my summer project!

I just wondered if any fellow forum users were based in the Cambridge area. Other than minor maintenance, this is new territory for me. I was hoping to make some useful contacts in the local area.

Look forward to hearing from you.

Best wishes,

Chris

Hi there Chris welcome to one of the best vintage bike forums! Looks like you've got yourself a very tidy little machine there, shouldn't need more than cables, a polish and maybe the bearings on headset, bottom bracket and wheels cleaned/replaced and it should ride a treat
