not sure about the blue forks unless you are going to have one or two other blue bits on it - however it's a nice bike and a good weight - I like

I got a cable hanger for my bombers from 'uk bikestore' online, if I remember

Nice bike, I like proflex's without girvins!!!

your wish is my command....

Is this enough extra blue Ed?

Did you get the hanger sorted?

spring would look good blue

looks nice

Bloody forks!

Cheers Ed :? Everytime I look at the bike now the forks stick out like a giant carbunkle.lol. I have access to a set of Girvins but if i'm honest i don't really like the look of them. Ideally I want something that is going to blend in with the frame, but what? Opinions please.

IMHO Girvins are the only thing to stick on them - I love them

Bar that, dunno really...

How about this one.

Someday, I will do a rebuilt. This frame cracked.
