Sometimes I could fall out of love with bikes......... Stripped the Vector for powder and found a lovely dink to the top tube and a few areas of lovingly filled rust blow holes....... (Had it powdered anyway to stop the surface rust taking hold whilst I make a decision) Reminds me of my days rebuilding classic motors - bit of filler, bit of paint and hey presto.
So do I send it to Phil and ask nicely for it to be sorted, or cut my increasing losses and fook the whole bastard thing off including forks Vector bars and new decals for £150 and let someone else have the fun as I'm running out of time and bunce.......... or chuck it in the wheelie bin as collection day is Friday and there's room in it......... I'm off to tinker with my Haro.

Looks like a pretty straightforward fill and grind flat sort of job to me Bert, get cracking!

As clint says looks easy enough :daumenhoch:
Or just build as is for a rider chum :chin:

Bert if you flogging it cheap I could be interested in it for a rider ;)
