Aren't you glad you opted to do this rather than the rat look from the start of the thread. great job, and impressive paint. So good it's allowed in the kitchen

Looks lovely. Although please change that chainring and bolts! Other than than, perfect.

 

[Theoldfm]

Yeah, you aren't the first to say that!

I am currently on the lookout for a nice Campagnolo 47 tooth chainring.... In silver!

The new paint does the cycle justice now. Top job indeed.

The blue chainring looks quite neat...........For Carlton's, Lagoon Blue and white make a nice Combo. Thinking about doing my Flyer in white with blue panels

Thanks Shaun.

I must admit, it certainly attracts comments / attention. There are more haters than lovers though... To me it looks alright, a bit trick in fact but I also think it will look good with a slightly bigger version in silver.

If you google Campagnolo BMX you will see where I got the inspiration from!

How's your OLN and chainline Theoldfm? Have you had to make any adjustments in that area? Is that a freewheel?
