Another 95 p7 build

[Blackers]

I brought this 19" c 2c or 21" c2t 95 p7 frame several months ago now .
My aim was to restore/ build it to good standard .
I wasn't aiming for a mint bike with exceptional components.
Just mainly using the doner bike for most of what I needed .
My only indulgence was an xt 737 crank set .

1st I stripped the old flaky lacquer off and the relacquered the frame with 2k etch laquer

Some good work there mate.

So what are we going to do, just stand around? Can't you at least suggest something suitable to lean against? :xmas-big-grin:

As luck would have it I found a rather battered 95 p7 complete as a doner bike .
Full stx rc and a set of pace mxcd rc35s . Should all be plain sailing from here . Well not quite the pace steerer was to short for the large frame and pace were sold out at the time so I ordered a 300mm rst steerer and cut the bottom of it and machined a groove in for the circlip .
Found a rough xt737 crank set with well rubbed arms ,
A couple of hrs with some 120 sand paper to shape out the wear and tear
Then wet and dry and polish and presto .
Ordered some new elastomers from John on Ebay for the rc35s .
And a new brake rocker kit from Tim.

Sod it grab a stool :facepalm:
