might as well keep an eye out for some s/hand forks any half decent brakes [tektro's ?] i cant see any point
in going period correct as the other bits are a mish mash.
you might be able to straighten the top tube a bit with a block of wood and a lump hammer.
its up to you with what you intended for your son to have .
yeah sure its cheap and cheerful so what.i would get it built with a really good saddle.
might sound silly but where do i measure the forks from as they are for 24" wheels
also do you know what year it would have been,ive done some looking but most of the kids bikes never had q,r and only had a single crank
ooh sorry ! i guess the fork might be worth having work done on it then ?
quite a different one here really... a boys retro racer.
i wonder what the original brakes were ?
im trying to find out i joined a site called gitane usa
the crank is an otional upgrade as most have sinle cotter cranks or summat
also the tyres are glued i think
well just ordered
the correct gear levers
correct derailleurs
some chrome french pedals
so in the new year i will be getting on with it :roll: :roll: :roll:
