  • Well it's pretty much finished, haven't bothered with decals as I prefer the plain lookbv2u.jpg
  • Sorry to say it but I think it was better before.

    Sorry.

    The front wheel just doesn't look right on that bike.
  • Or the lever set up.

    If you're going to keep it with only a front brake then I'd slam a second hood on there so you can use them while riding - one is just going to be weird.
  • I don't think it is particularly exotic in race terms as it appears to have a front light mount on the offside fork leg.

    Don't know but it's old - that lamp boss on the front forks, the square fork crown, the pump bosses all say 1970s to me, maybe earlier - forks have an old fashioned shape to them

    So I'm going to go '60s, especially if that's the original chainset

    It's just a hill. Get over it.
