finished kili racer

Retro Guru
Finished rebuild on my old kili just in time to ride it in the Great Yorkshire Bike Ride next weekend (Wetherby to Filey). Ended up with a two tone paint job after repairing major crash damage to top tube and unable to get a good paint match. The local powder coater didn't know how the body filler used in the top tube would react, so I painted it with appliance white enamel instead. I think it looks ok. Spd's and Vee's I know aren't truley retro, but it rides and stops well and it's been built to ride. :D
Give me a shout if you see me on the GYBR next weekend :!:

Here we go again! I take it there is a picture? Why can't I see it? I'm going to blame this damn PC! I like Saracens too. What year is it?
 
Having trouble

ITs a 92, I have more pictures but struggling with Pc/ attachments!
I took less time to build the bike :!:
 
Nice :) Slightly more refined than my '91....my seat stay brace looks like it was made and welded in 30 seconds :shock:

That is stunning, all credit to. I forgot all about these elevated chainstay Saracens until I saw yours, really nice bike.

Heard of kick stands but not stick stands, who's the distributor?
