Same here, i think it looks great as it is, doesn't need to be messed around with, and like you said, will never see another one like it. Its a nice ride, i got a brand new bike on boxing day so have been out on that mostly, but its nice to have something to go back to. I'm going to take...

Thanks for the comments. I'm planning on going out on Saturday so will be able to gauge what feels comfortable after a bit of a ride, so we shall see!

Thanks a lot! I'm really happy with how it's turned out.

Finally finished putting everything back together again this weekend. Tuning and adjusting of gears and brakes done and the bike is finished. Took it for a spin this morning and it feels great, very responsive, much tighter and more nimble than it was before - I'm sure its just because of me...

Still available??

Thats a good point, no-one will ever know

Not sure, I like the retro text have tried to recreate using photoshop, think it looks OK...

Hi, Im looking to get hold of a British Eagle saddle and some decals for my pro-carbon, mine have been through the wars somewhat!! Pics attached of the sort of thing I'm after. Im sure there wont be any decals out there, but if anyone knows of anyone who can make them up for me that would...

Saddle sorted, thats on its way and should arrive this week, couldn't get an original but picked up a Turbo Matic which should hopefully look the part, if not I'll look for something else. I really want to re-do the decals, does anyone either know where i could get the font matched or...

So, a bit more work today cleaning, polishing and more cleaning. Have also started putting the bike back together again, so i have added a few more pictures. My handlebar tape arrived this morning, it took me ages to track some down and Im very pleased with how it looks. It was the first time...

That looks about right, cheers!

I'll keep an eye out, thanks for that

I think im going to stick with the 105 kit, want to keep it as close to the original as possible, also, Ive just spent a good few hours looking around and its hard to find a 600 group-set in nice condition. Maybe for the next bike i do :) R.e. the seatpost, I'm going to try and get away...

A day of cleaning, de-greasing and polishing. I have now finished with the frame, so the next stage is to clean components and get it all put back together again. Bar tape is on its way from america, have gone for as close a match to the original black to white fade as i could find. Need to find...

I dont know anything about it, other than its a fantastic ride, which I'm sure you are well aware of already. There arent any serial numbers or unique identifying marks, no names or stamps anywhere, all there is is the size stamped on the bottom bracket shell. Does anyone know of where to...
