There seem to be quite a few S&M fans on here so I thought Id share a few pics of my 94 Holmes with all of you. I wanted to build a Holmes exactly like my one BITD, and aside from a few small things Ive done exactly that. The stem, stem pad, pedals, seat clamp, and seat post are actually the very items I ran on my bike back in the 90's. All the other bits are exactly what i had. The only change is the hubs but these are so close Im happy to leave it as is.
Because of this my Holmes is by far the bike a treasure the most, and is the one I will always hang on to. Its pretty rough around the edges and thats also why I love this bike. I haven't gone out of my way to refurbish anything and the chewed up dropouts and flatted chrome all add to the character for me. :smitten:
