^^ +1

It looked about 10lbs heavier with blacked tyres.. Even if they did have a slight nod to amber with that pin strip running around them.

Some how just looks more racey now.

Great find and brush up by the way.

That is fabulous. A true retrobike. Good to see some nice Cornwall backdrops too, two reasons to feel nostalgic! (I was brought up in Penzance)

Thanks mate It's alright around here but I miss a good forest sometimes.....or even just a little bit of woodland

Nice score there, she looks a beaut', I saw one on the bay a while back in this size, not sure if it was this one but was very tempted.

Ps you've got some great trails on your doorstep too by the looks of it

This was indeed the same one The trails are on my doorstep here but the coast path is pretty harsh in places
