Not very original I know, but they seem to be good to ease yourself in. Thought I would post a few pics of this one with the bits I have collected before completion.
Picked up the whole bike last May, but ditched/sold all the other bits off it, but did keep the XTR M900 wheelset
Nice as the speckle paint job was, I thought I would get it sprayed. I thought about whiteZZZZZzzzzzzz, but then my local agricultural machinery powder coater offered to do it in pearlescent white so I did (not that you can tell that well from the pics I don't think).
I have put 91 transfers on (from Gil), because I think the originals are pretty naff + Gil didn't have them on file
It has been sprayed, and is going back along with the stem to be lacquered a few times. Hopefully done soon, just need a seatpost clamp & Seatpost And Cables doing, then I will post up the pics.
Cheers...Nick
