That's Gorgeous .

Got to agree with that, and then some.

A long time ago a friend (well guy I worked with) had a 531 framed overburys which if mempry served was white/green fade. Can't remember what it was though. He had something to do wit the BMX scene, possibly a UK champion (Steve something), and he could wheelie anything for miles, and I do mean miles, even racing bikes, shoppers but I digress.

That blue to yellow fade is a lovely scheme, suits the fillet brazed and lugged frame amazingly well. I thought the nicest bike I had seen on here was a Zinn, this gives that a run for it's money.

Picked this up from a local junk shop for £15 last weekend. Nice Shimano 600 groupset, Overbury's wheel build. Too small for me but Mrs Daddy Pig fancies a road bike, so it's a keeper. I need some new forks (if anyone has a suitable pair knocking around...). I'm also planning getting it powder coated; current paint isn't great at all. Gil-m can do the downtube decals for me; I've also seen a thread where a few folk were trying to get some of the original headtube decals re-made. Did anything come of that?

I've been hopeless at updates with the project, all but finished now though...

Some magic bikes on here, but sadly we never got to see the very best completely finished...

Yes, Martin's paint job was amazing.

OK, so here's mine:


It's a work in progress, build thread is here: http://www.retrobike.co.uk/forum/viewto ... p;t=333050

I bought it off a guy who then went on to buy one of Overbury's Columbus Max frames. Has anyone here got one of those?
