One wheel on my wagon.

It's a bit rough but again, it has charm.

Mocked it up to get an idea of size. Looks good with the long head tube giving my back a chance. Will get xt inc v brakes. Not sure what to do about the paint. A bit tatty in parts. What with the bonded tubes?

So what with this and the ranger, I think I'm going to have to resist anything else..........

Would it be around 91/92? Had a look in catalogues and guesstimating.

Seller said 27.2 but this 27 feels ok despite gap at top. Have a 27.2 on the way but not sure now. Again if you can help confirm I would be grateful.
 
Re: Another arrival. 91? 92?

I think 'A' means 1990...

They do have a certain charm I agree. Think it looks good in that bigger size too - a lot of bikes lose their looks as the dimensions go out of balance, but that's still spot on I reckon :cool: maybe it's the dropped tt does it.
 
Re: Another arrival. 91? 92?

Also the T-bone, and the black and grey stealth look, yes yes yes, the more I look the more I like! :D Hope you're going full-stealth with it? Will look ace! ;)
 
Re: Another arrival. 91? 92?

Looks like I've sat on the top tube,,, what are the lugs made of ,bit different isn't it
 
Re:

I like the lugs on this one mister ! Not as much as I like the forks though . Reckon you should put some bouncy ones on it and flog me those !

+1 on the stealth black look . Maybe LX like I have on my Sunn ?

Xtr rear xt front mech and cranks. Xt v brakes Plus some geezer's thumbies and grey SUP
 
Re:

Noooooo, no Vs on this please!!!

Aside from them being utterly, despicably wrong on a frame seven years too old for them, I think you'll find that they simply don't fit due to the wider than usual spacing of the rear bosses... *

Not to mention ruining the line of the monostay with their hideousness. Some nice wide cantis will work a treat and look lovely :cool:

Consider yourself slapped with a wet flannel sir!







*certainly the case with later, '92/3 Dynas, not totally sure on this version if I'm honest
 
Re: Another arrival. 91? 92?

I dont have any more cantis. Sold them all. (He lied)
 
Re:

This seriously needs to end up with a heavily 'industrial' look.

Lots of black and grey.

Try some modern CX canti's, they'll look the part and they will actually slow / stop the bike, even with you riding it, and even with those bl**dy great hills you insist on blasting down.
