Awesome :coolsmiley:
When I was checking out stuff for a 70's build (which would have been no where near as high end as yours) I was gonna use chen shin or carlisle aggessor knobblys from rinis which are (almost) era AFAIK and cheap as chips in comparison to comp 2's or snakebellys.
-
Fcuk the tyres, that thing is mint Jon.
You do put together a nice bike, they are always mint.
Loved the blue and chrome Proline you did, one of my faves that.
-
crap!
fookin mint, as all your stuff.... :daumenhoch:
