Took almost 3 decades but I finally got my hands on one of these....Brodie Sovereign with Gatorblade fork

If I had to be honest it probably didn't make a lot of financial sense to put the amount of money that I did to refurbish/rebuild an essentially 30 year old bike

Isn't this the case with 99% of RetroBike projects?!*

but it was a purely emotional buy....I have always wanted one of these.

And 99% of us are here because we finally got hold of something that was out of reach to us 30 years ago...

Looks great, though the wheels don't quite do it for me. You should try and find a Brodie booster for that u-brake Are they Jimbo's decals?
