Kestrel MXZ (No.2) 10 years later update

[retrobikeguy]

Well here she is - finished, Until I can find a nice 1" DX headset .
Kestrel MXZ finished in pearlescent white and with some NOS decals, Tange switchblades (thanks to yoeddy & Elev12k) also sprayed to match and a full DX groupset, managed to dig out some old black DX hubs laced to some wolbers (off an old saracen) and a pair of michelin tyres in amber to finish it off.

And some pics of the pair together (Ying & Yang)

That really is anice bike. If ever I was to have a bike resprayed in one color it would be that fantastic pearlescent white. I have never seen a bike that doesn't look good in it!!

Good work

Very sweet. Now you can pick the bike that suits your mood of the moment best. Next project: Create 7, one for each day of the week :idea:

Do have a DX headset, good but unfortunately not mint due to cablerub
