Title: 1977 race inc pro, Very old school
Post by: moanjam on May 22, 2010, 10:16 AM
been working on this for a while sourcing bits , got the frame off an old mate last year and started researchin it which was difficult as theres not a lot of info out there for pre 1980 stuff, when race inc made this frame thats all they made, just frames ,no forks, bars etc, in a few early pics i found redline forks seemed to be favoured, i've just about kept it era correct bar the seatpost clamp

You clearly have fine wrists and sturdy finger muscles. I like that in a chap.
Nice bike sir :4_17_5:

Very nice :daumenhoch: , not a fan of the polished cranks but the rest looks good .
I'd lose the dice caps & swap out the white brake blocks for std colour dc ones ;) .
