Right, been busy today and it's well on the way to being finished. Just need to polish up the XTR cranks, tidy the XTR canti's, then get some new cables and a chain. Can't wait to get back out on her.

I'd be interested to hear what fellow retro bikers think of the new build direction. Is the 'less is more' approach to purple the way foward? Any other changes you'd make?

I think I've scored some RC30's and am also toying with the idea of fitting RC35's to compliment the smooth feel of the back end. We'll see.

Gotta say that is looking brilliant! Very

The less is more aproach is the way I'd usually tackle a build, not that you'd know that looking at the clockwork :roll: it (less is more) works especially well with Ti frames too IMO.. it's just classy!

Think you're on to a winner there mate!

Dribble, dribble :shock:

Dude that looks soooooo nice.

That looks far better with just the little bits of purple.

Thanks for the comments!

Must admit jonnyboy, mines still in the front room after taking the pictures and I keep gazing at it.
