So I have tried going retro, and it's just not for me I'm afraid. Older bikes are lovely to look at, but not right for what I need right now.
My loss is your gain though :D
Want rid of my clockwork, plus all the other bits and pieces I've accumulated to make way for my new bike.
I want...
Yeh, Sinnermans clockwork is pretty amazing alright. It'll take some work for someone to create a nicer Clockwork than that. If this wasn't being used as a work bike, I'd love to lavish some nice shiny bits and a new paint job on her.
Right, I'd call this finished now although I'm not sure of the bar/stem combo. I have some black "Exotic" scandium bars in the garage, might swap them over or maybe change the stem for a black or silver one. Then again, I may not bother :
Frame and Forks: 1991 Orange Clockwork
Chainset...
That. Is. Epic! :shock:
Absolutely stunning work. Just goes to show what CAN be done when you are passionate about a project like this.
This and your original thread are quite inspirational for noobs such as myself.
Good job.
