It's that time again, the weekly update! ;-)
I received in the post today a set of Gripshift SRT600 with grips from Foz on here, (thanks very much) so I built up the stem and bar with break leavers and my old SRT500 shifter with the grips from the 600's. (I'll keep those bodies as spares) I think it looks good, and is a real blast from the past, my those bars feel narrow though! ;-)
I also received the final proof for my replacement stickers from Gil_m, they look great. so I am now able to start work on the frame. A full tub of Nitromose later and I have most of the paint off just a few tricky areas left.
The frame looks in good condition, just a bit of surface pitting where the paint had failed. I shall be finishing the strip tomorrow and hopefully getting a coat of etch primer on.
Cheers
Simon.
