You have more than likely seen this frame and fork on here before built up as Beards OS racer a couple of seasons back. Well here is my take on the bike, I built it up tonight. It just needs a freewheel, pedals and the chain fitting.

I havnt been to coppull since the night I came off and splatted myself on the floor... I will try and get there next week at some point in between college and work and hopefully this chest infection ive got will have f**ked off by then aswell.

The stem pad is big enough to be a man nappy... Im going to replace it with either a plain black pad of normal size or maybe just not have a pad there. Ive got a late 80's zeronine number plate coming from the US for it and ive eyed up a pair of real nice pedals for it(funds permitting).

Gotta love a Robinson.... :daumenhoch:

Mr Beard, the red powder used is such a real nice colour. I cant stop looking at it, still a few mods to do yet. Do you still have the chrome amtrac?
Matt
-
Lovely :daumenhoch:. Some of the best looking bikes ever seem to come from this time, pre aluminium strangeness ;). Wish I had the forks.
-
The early 90's to mid 90's GT made chromo race frame sets deffo build up in race bike beautys. :smitten:
Your forks look like they are the same unit as fitted to this bike. I think next I would like to build up a 90'sm GT chromo racer(as long as its a 21" TT as least).

Sadly the chrome one has gone as well... I've really down sized my collection of bikes over the past 12 months.
Miss them both...
