So I picked this up recently and going to give it a sympathetic resto which means only replacing or adding necessary bits.....even going to keep with the rusty original spokes.  :daumenhoch:

It's pretty much original apart from the rear tyre and only requires minor work.

I need to replace the rear inner DC cable as it's shot, add a pinch bolt/washer and nut, source a pedal dustcap and replace all the cage screws as most are damaged and one is missing. Although the cages are bent, they are staying that way and although the grips are not great their condition add to the bikes history.

If you have anything in your boxes of spares, please let me know.  :daumenhoch:

sparky:
Getting there.

Looking good that mate  8) :daumenhoch:

Mikku:
Yeah, a lovely bike and props for going down the sympathetic resto route. :daumenhoch:

Am I right in thinking these frames are tri-moly? & what year is this one?

Great looking survivor. Will look great when cleaned up.  :)
