im 99% sure that's my old one.if so it has redline forks which are still kind of correct. when patty first sprung up they only made frames so used a speedo fork,they then changed to a redline proline microline fork then made their own which are identical to the redline except the redlines have a rounder shoulder,youd be pushed to tell the differance

I sold mine to paul fraser(db250) who was building it for a chap near brighton,that would have been 4 years ago.i scored the frame on its own and had it rechromed and managed to get the froks here about a week after buying the frame,what are the chances of that!!the early pattys are awesome and in my opinion proper collectors pieces,i sold that one only because I managed to get a Patty long just after
I think these are the best decals,the last of the pattys pre pr series,late 82/early 83 the newer and best font but without the white background

I'm with Mark here (btw Mark, that bike above is one of my all-time favourite builds, period!!!), that Patty deserves correct-era decals not the later PR ones. Don't get me wrong, I like the latter but the older ones are a simpler design, which imo better matches the frameset. If you haven't already guessed, this is by far my favourite era of Patty! Although I like the late-70s and PR-series ones, the lines of the early 80s frames really do it for me! :smitten:
So is this one of the Trackmaster-built fames? In any case, am looking forward to the build thread!!! :daumenhoch:
