Old School Grand Master
I've now managed to get this together for next weekend's Classic Show and here it is. The frame, which is lugless and beautifully filed, was built for Dave's stand at the Harrogate show as a Time Trial machine with cantilever brakes. I had these removed and a few other alterations done in '85 by Bernard Macklam in Leeds which is why it has his 'Sergio' transfers fitted. It was re-enamelled at the same time in the typical 80's 'fade' style. I've tried to kit it out with 70's components but still need some brake stirrups and a saddle. My old wheels also need re-fettling before they can be used. It is quite short and steep, giving a 'lively' ride which I will have to get used to after so much MTB'ing!
