ebay pics



well, undeterred about the headtube i figured i could get a local frame builder to sort it if it was cracked, paint will be something me and the youth with do again and ive loadsa nice bits to fit already so initila costs wouldnt be too much.

so last night i got the paint stripper out...........


what dya reks underneath?? :LOL: :LOL:
 
Re:

I reckon the paint cracked when the headset was fitted. and allowed water ingress to cause major rust ;)
 
nope just drive side, weighs very little and cant wait to build this up. thinking gloss grey with white and blue splatter.................or crackle effect............or bare and clear coat.............or rainbow baby!!!!
 
well.............................

before


after



woop woop, no frame repair for this one :)

time to get it stripped and primed

So please for yah
