Vinegar works but quite slowly. I quite like using citric acid - cheap enough if buying a reasonable quantity. Be nice to keep as much chrome as possible but depends how you want to use/store it. A wipe with an oily rag every couple of months does wonders!

Great work on those bars! 👍

Looking very useful indeed! I also like the look of those bars, what are they please?

It was all a happy accident when during the wheel build stud lock was accidently used instead of lubricant on the spoke threads. The only way to tension up the wheels was to twist the spokes. Et voilà, Bob's yer uncle!

Still thinking I've got a chance bump

Looks like it could be a great bike, lots of original parts - do you like polishing?

The search continues bump.

Bought a beautiful bargain bundle which was perfectly packed and arrived in lightning quick time. Absolutely brilliant seller - thank you very much!

Isn't a rim brake just the biggest mechanical disc that can be fitted anyway?

.... My dad stole it!....I always wondered where he got the cash for his gold coloured Casio watch from. Didn't even leave it to me in his will.

Nice looking bikes for what they are. My uncle got one of these shortly after I got a Raleigh Quasar - I think he 'had' to go at least one up the range! Has been offered to me recently but I'm not really a road bike rider and I think he'd want me to keep it. My Quasar was stolen from the front...

Pm'd for further details.

Don't think they laser cut, more machining but very capable and always good value when I used them.

Can only ask and Darren the owner is into Motorsport so might be inclined to help.
