That is a very nice clean setup you have.

Thats very nice, I like it a lot.

Shame your a Student though..........

Agreed with above. I like the visual simplicity. Looks straight like a retro bike and a rider both.

that is ace bud,we used to sell these and remember bitd watching the grundigs dreaming of nice clean lines like this

pukka!

I think your bike look's amazing! Super clean build. Well done that man!

Very clean build

that's giving me ideas for one of mine!

Is it dishwasher safe? Man that is shiny!

I like it.

That is very, very nice. As said above loving the simplicity and clean lines of this bike. I think you've restored that to it's full potential.

I think you've slightly over-done the cutting and pasting from Bikepedia there - award yourself an XT rear mech and spd pedals! And actually the lack of the Tioga Psychos is the only regrettable part of the whole thing, great otherwise.
