Thanks it took a couple of attempts to get the paint and clear coat to the point I was happy with it. I like the colour scheme reminds me of a shell suit my mum used to make me wear around that time. 😆

The Young at work with gave me this. He found it left in the shed at his new flat in Aberdeen. I don't think it's anything special but I've enjoyed sorting it out. The Frame was covered in surface rust so I cleaned it up and re-painted it with sign writers enamel and sponges around the original...

I've finished sorting out my Axis I'm really pleased with how it's turned out. It's a tiny bit small for me but I'm enjoying riding it about anyway and it looks mint!
