A sneak preview of my next old build..
Ill add to this everytime i do some more to the build-up
Plus ill add a list of the parts and work done.
the frame is a demo frame built up by Grove innovations and sent to Tom
Teesdale to check out then copy for the later Braves..
When i got the frame it was stripped of paint. It became a major pain
trying to find someone who could do an authentic 80's splatter!
Luckily it came with original decals and i had a good idea of how i wanted
it to look. The parts were really hard to find for a build that wouldnt
involve any later chi-chi but good old fashioned solid Suntour. The cranks
are C.Q.P. and were actually available in 89. The brakes are Marinovative
decellaraters available late 89 early 90. I now have all of the parts to
finish (brake pads arriving from U.S. shortly) Hoping to have a build list
and some much improved pictures within next couple of weeks.
Hope you all like it? It is my first proper dream build that i would have
murdered for at 15 years young Page 3 has the final build shots
