Gone down very well! Nice job. What powers your front light?

 

[Ricky9992]

Unfortunately the front lamp is a battery cheapo from China due to the bike not being worth all that much and it already totalling £180 but I've managed to source an aluminum rear wheel and some new old stock 27" tyres so will change again yet .oh and some period peddles from the scrap yd so I can get rid of the new ones that I used to ti

Love that cream/ecru colour with the brown tape and saddle looks nice.

Agreed, a very handsome combination. But I do think your 531 decal is, how shall I put this, aspirational at the very least...

Sorry chicken drumsticks tried to reply still getting the hang of the forum.
Yes the 531 decal is far from correct but its the only viking decal kit i could find .I purposely haven't lacquerd over them as will remove if I ever sell the bike .
