Just finished in the garage and been for a spin round the block to check it all works.

Waited nearly a year for the frame so this really has been a labour of love.

I wanted a modern bike with a retro feel and think it works quite well with the parts package I accumulated over the year.

Ill maybe make a couple of alterations to the final build but for now it's time to get out and ride.

Was a bit overcast so will upload better pics when the weather lets me. Enjoy :D
