nearly finished 1st build - sneaky peek

Look at my restoring araya rims thread - you can use a drill but a bench grinder with mops is better - failing that send it me mate, I'll sort it for you...  :coolsmiley:

 

NORTY40:
Looking good mate  :daumenhoch:

Personally I would change that seat/post combo though .

With regards the power disc if you want it mirror polished send it to Sid or use your drill clamped in a vice and get a polishing kit from www.thepolishingshop.co.uk or I think machine mart even do a basic kit now  ;)  If you just want to make it look newer but not over polished hit it with some 800/1200's wet and dry and then lightly autosol/brasso or peek it  :daumenhoch:

Looking forward to seeing it finished  :)

thanks a lot sid - since I'm only (for now at least) planning on having one bike a grinder + bench might be a bit of an expense
will see how it looks when it arrives and let you know, but if you can help that would be fantastic

cheers

and still not changing the seat - I might start a 'friends of the Elina UL' thread  ;D

I love the Elina UL and had one back in the day. They were more desirable than a Kashimax where I lived. :daumenhoch:
