Very nice bikes, almost got one back in the day.

I've always wondered what those were like to ride. They always look huge. What length is the top tube?

Ah yes, bit of a story behind this.
I bought this pretty much on the advice of the seller and blowing pictures up really big and trying to guess the size based on scale/position of brake bosses -so not really knowing what size it was.
Apparently they all have the same size seat tube or something.

Turns out that this one is a weenie 16" when measured from centre of BB to centre of where the top tube joins. Perfect! Phew.

To answer you question, I measured the top tube as 21" from joint to joint.

More luck.....

Won some shimano canti's on ebay for £6.70. Cool beanz.

Ha its cool, twas just a wee punt anyway

wheelz

Wheels are here.
Not particularly retro (Sorry purists! ) but being only 24 spokers and tubeless they should help keep the weight down a bit. I think that once fitted they should look the part too.

Had a request for an update. Sorry! Been busy. You know how these things are.

At the moment it's a "Rolling Chassis". Got hold of a Specialized fsx fork, so that's propping the front end up. Wheels are on, brake levers are here waiting for a bar, XT rear mech is on...
Um, next up is a headset and then figuring out if I need a longer steerer.

Picture coming soon. :mrgreen:
