Just thought I would add a couple more pics of my never ending project for anyone that may be interested in my 91 cinder cone.
Still trying to source a NOS Kalloy seat post (26.4mm) and then powder coat forks, replace front wheel (or both!) and get it all sorted and reconstructed ready to ride.
Things that are new:
Cantis have been replace with XT V-brakes
Dia-comp levers (pitted to hell) have been replace also with XT levers.
All cables replaced.
Spoon seat to replace the battered original Avocet Racing (which took a pounding when trying to free the stem of when I started the project.
New wellgo pedals (very similar look to originals).
Hope its not upset the true retro dudes but hopefully this will mean I use it again (FINALLY)
let me know your thoughts or any suggestions on other mods or original parts available.
Peace...
