update time

frames back, blasted and now in primer.

questioning whether i want to have the drop out hole filled or not, its been like that since 89 so should be okay for me and its simple life in lincs.........and the peaks ..........unsure

pics













primed


we have a frame number!!!!!!!!


forks and stem are drying as we speak. quite chuffed thus far. turns out the seatpost is not 27.2 as id thought............and nearly bought a post for. an old 26.6 fits like a glove and measures the same with the venier gauge so ill get either gloss black or silver depending on finding a matching post and bar.
