Just need a red or alloy seatpost and she's done

Lovely RTS, i have an emaculate 16" RTS (american made) frame sitting on my window sill, never been built up, a bit small for me, but i wont sell it, ever since first reading about em in '92 i was in love (having got a gt earlier that year) and now also just bought a RTS (off ebay (again) larger frame so will fit me so am looking at building it up, but 1st a respray, just deciding colours, thinking, british racing green, with gold rear triangle

Yo Matt,

you don't wanna leave such a thing of beauty on your window sill you wanna sell her to me. I would treat her well and give her a classic build.

Just got my hands on another stem, a slightly longer Raceface job, and its an exact red match to the brakes so I'm very happy. Also acquired an American Classic alloy seatpost and a red Flite Max.

Stem and post are on, now waiting for the Flite to arrive in the post.......then I think the build will be complete.


......for the moment!
