Have a better stem for the Pine Mountain now, the other one was off a Muirwoods and had too high a rise.

Needs repainted but so does the whole bike!

Just seen this project and I love it. How are you getting on? I'm hopefully attaching a pic of my 1991 Pine Mountain which I finished early in July. Mine was in pretty good nic when I got it so nothing like what you've taken on. It rides beautifully so it's worth keeping going. One tip: Gil dis me some great decals but some of them were larger proportions than the originals so worth specifying exact sizes if you're going that route.

Can see your pictures now, that looks great, hopefully mine will end up as nice as that.

Cheers

Was just Hammerite grey stonechip paint.

I haven't done the whole bike yet but I'm going to use a light coat of this:

To get the textured finish.

Would only work for 1991 onwards. The early ones are a much lighter grey.

Also, I take it you've seen my project here: viewtopic.php?f=1&t=364318

While it's lighter grey, it's the result of having the frame professionally sand-blasted and then clear-coated by me.
