What a brilliant thread, from asking your son about what kind of bike he would like and receiving the response of a “Mint Sauced” Pace through to all the hard work and effort you’ve put into achieving this
You gave me a preview before Xmas and it looked great then, but it’s really going from strength to strength
Love the “Dr Dans Pace repair emporium” I feel that way too and have also hugely benefited from his expertise and craftsmanship over the years.
The decals, colour scheme and Headtube badge are just fantastic
Definitely a cool dad and son
Keep up the awesome work
