Advice on an 80s' build (before I start)

<< < (2/5) > >>

Andy68:
Go for the 'survivor' build Mike if you want to keep costs down, forget the carpet queens, scuffed, scratched, faded parts are so much cheaper and in my opinion look the real deal. You can fall off it too without any worries. ;)

As Spen said, the GT Pro frameset is a good shout!!  :daumenhoch:

Might also be worth asking on here for someone to verify a frameset when/if you find one, lots of stickered up fakies out there.

MikeH:
Thanks for the advice fellas, I like all GT's so a pro sounds good, i'll start keeping an eye out!

Also have a hunch that an uncle of mine might still have my cousins Supergoose hidden away in a shed, may have
to pay him a visit. ;)

I've got five Burners in me cellar doing nowt Mike - if you fancy one of em I'll do one cheap pour vous. Mainly to get rid of the stigma  :LolLolLolLol:

Jaan:
I have to agree that a GT Pro is a good option, they're beautiful frame sets which oddly command relatively few dollars.

However, if you're not going to be building lots of bikes* why not wait and pick one from your list?  Write out a parts list and slowly tick them off as you acquire them. You'll still be getting a sense of satisfaction / excitement as the parts come in and you'll be biding your time for the right priced frame set...


*Wanting to build a bike you once owned and/or a bike you wanted are all the signs of a potential addict  :LolLolLolLol:
