Dawes Super Galaxy rebuild

I was given this frameset so decided to give it a new lease of life, got the frame powdercoated, and added a set of modern wheels, some mini v brakes. Forgive the tyre colour choice its all I have lying about (looks quite Brazilian with them on tho)

Re:

How does it ride?

 

[scottarm]

its a really smooth ride, you can see why it was known as a great touring bike, I am contemplating using it for a charity cycle from London to Edinburgh but it may be a bit tall for me, the reach is OK but the horizontal bar is just a bit too high ans close for comfort!
