Hello all,
I am very appreciative of all your comments and good wishes, great to join in on bike crack with obvious fanatics.
Thanks initially for all the help and for the first bits you know who u are.....
I bought the bike for £30 on fleebay, bargain its a 23 inch frame which should fit my lanky 6ft 5inch frame ha
I stripped off the old suntour stuff and made a decision to build up with shimano XT M732 after weeks of deliberation....
I love the frame it needs some serious TLC, can't wait for the challenge, but i do want to keep original paint as thats the heart of the thing, getting all romantic about it ha must be valentines day getting to me, like all others here its bikes first and women somewhere further down the priority list ha
Tried putting photos on they are too large need to compact them somehow, will try again...its just the frame at moment but bits are coming in soon!
Karlos
