Great year for GT with such cool paint jobs. it's come up a treat so the flattening, t-cutting and polishing mentioned in your thread has paid off!I'm in
My old trusty warhorse bought by working my socks off as a 15 year old kid in 1991.
Bashed and crashed ...raced and sunk ...and it's still alive and kicking.
Triggers broomed for 25 years until first ride out today on it since climbing Mt Afan about 6 years ago!
Kept clean and treated ..mean.

Well it's original owner botm....think I kinda qualify.So let's have a thread then..! And let's face it someone's gotta lower the tone...might aswell be me 😁 Bought new by me from Trev's cycles in Ashford....1991....if I remember rightly in August. After working multiple jobs every weekend for...www.retrobike.co.uk
However I think you've been a tad aggressive cleaning the tyres as all the treads have been polished off!
