1993 Greg Lemond Team Gan restoration finished with photos

[Gibbos-retro-rides]

Hi fellow retro bike members thought that I would share one of my builds with you guys.
I got this bike in a deal and although it was not my frame size and it had its fair share of rust and the Chrome had seen better days. I decided it was such a nice frame with plenty of pantograph that I would restore it and bring it back to its former glory and let someone else enjoy this cracking classic steel bike.

I got the frame resprayed last year 2015 with new chrome and had to have the decals remastered by Atlantic bulivared in bury Lancashire. The frame came out looking amazing in my eyes great job done by Neill at Atlantic cheers pal.

As mentioned I used shimano 600 Tri colour groupset with a Campagnolo headset. I know the headsets not the norm but it was what was in my box of bits at the time! More pics of the build to follow.....
