I haven't built an 80's bike for a long time, but just built one and god damn the parts are expensive. However with a bit of searching and lateral thinking it hasn't ended up costing too much. Yes NOS MX1000 calipers are way too expensive to buy, but one that needed a bit of cleaning and restoration cost me £35, Kashimax Aero seats are crazy prices, but there are other seats to use for a lot less money.

Looking forward to seeing it built Sean, frame and forks look amazing :daumenhoch: much prefer a build with a few different parts that have some thought put into them rather than the usual
