Re: But I’ve not actually seen the bike restored and the chap in question isn’t really in touch with us any more.

Re: I lent it to a guy who turned up at my running club a couple of years ago, he eventually bought it off me and had it restored.

Re: Yes please!

Re: Ta

I'd settle for 'affordable but not completely scratched to blazes'... it's a bike that's been raced and had A Life rather than being a showroom example.

For a Look kg386 that I've picked up, which has a mix of Ultegra / Dura Ace. Trying to upgrade to full Dura Ace but the shifters have been the sticking point so far...
