It's probably overpriced, not of massive interest - I'm mainly putting this here for posterity for the AMAZING paintscheme!!!!! There's something about it that rather tickles my fancy. One that I shall refer back to if doing another non-standard paintjob.

Almost a rasta look to it.. a bit like that hat that lenny Henry used to wear at Christmas panto time 1981 or 1982 AFAIK. There is a rasta Chris King headset would go nicely.. also salsa have done a rasta themed bike in the past.. lovely.
Few cannabis leaf type decals to complete the look.
Of course you'd have to ride that thing with a big blunt in your mouth.. and dreadlocks to complete overall look.

Hi,
i do have still some saved pictures of an earlier offer on a private marketplace of the complete bike.
Maybe just interesting to see.
It was certainly the same bike, there is no other like this. To me a great bike.



no embossing of the Fuchs logo at the dropouts at this early Fuchs Bike.

I personally was just wondering if the order at the colors at the fork was accidently done in wrong way? Starting with green on top would have matched better to the green head tube.

Weirdly I think that's part of the appeal - the pink bit right underneath the green headtube!
