Hello People.
I haven’t posted much for a very long time. After a flying start with my Alpinestars, followed by Blackstar and a few others in between, I have been rather relaxed with the whole Retrobike thing. I have stayed active and dipped in and out but have mainly been buying bits and pieces that I liked the look of and selling on some bits to others.
In October 2015 I noticed that this 2007 Clockwork frame was back up for sale by 'brocklanders023'. I made contact and after a bit of frantic selling and pleading with the wife I became the custodian of number 003. I was very happy.
It’s been a slow burn and will continue to be a slow burn, it’s not quite finished, but it’s almost there. So here is my Clockwork Orange 2007 (number 003) for your attention. I have a few bits and pieces to finish it off, but I thought I would post a picture of it in its almost finished state. I will no doubt keep updating it; I’m already looking at different wheels as I type.
