1996 Litespeed @ Warpspeed

[passiflora]

Thanks to Woody who passed on this gorgeous Titanium beast.

Thanks to Dyna for the anti seaze paste.

Thanks to Wadsy, MM & El-pedro for encouragement.

I want to keep the build simple, but enhance the Litespeed decals and highlights.

I've gone for black in the main with red highlights.

I've just fitted the Black Jagwire cables with red Jagwire ferrels.

A few tease photo's with lots more to follow, thanks

Just for you I will give you just a little bit more.....


Picture shows the Red hope QR, and Pace RC31.

I did have gold hope QR fitted but it was to much so swapped to red.



Some progress made, I have trial fitted the a Raceface Evolve C/set, but need to clean the black top c/ring (re-paint) & polish the crank arms.

Also get an adapter to fit the bottom bracket properly as I do not have one

Lurrrrvvveeellyyyy!!!
I had one of these in 1998...Bought it from Hawaii after going out to watch the World Cup Grundig there. Brought it back on the plane as hand luggage. "There's no way I'm checking that in Love!"...

For some DAMM STOOPID Reason, I sold it on...would Love one now...but would have to sell my current soul to pay for it...
Looking forward to seeing it done

Thanks Chris it's taking me a while, just need to get the chainset sorted.

Fit the front mech & chain and it's a rider.

A few things I want to do, get a black chris king top cap, get some red ano bottle cage bolts and eventually.......

get the XTR brakes anodised again just the adjusters.

but very pleased with it
