Title: Azusa
Post by: Zippy on October 17, 2006, 11:44 PM

I chucked this together last weekend. It's not finished yet but it's almost there. I'm happy with it so far. It's just going to be used for cruising along the beach front with the family in the summer although it may get raced occassionaly and will definetely be aired at the summer meet. I want to change the headset, the brakes and the chainring but otherwise it's complete. Parts Rundown as follows:

Frame and Forks - Azusa (JMC Tribute)
Bars - TNT Retro (Retro JMC)
Grips - A'me
Brakes - Shimano XTR
Rims - Araya Super 7X
Hubs - Shimano DX Cassette
Tires - Tioga Comp III's (blue and grey label)
Cranks - Redline Flite II
Chainring - Redline
Seat - SDG Retro (Lightning Bolt)
Seat Post - Kappa
Stem - Profile
Headset - Hope
Pedals - Shimano DX

If I had a spare £300 I'd have that off you as you.  :daumenhoch:

You never know what will happen next year though as you've had it up for sale a while now. :daumenhoch:

Really lovely frames.  Future classics.

I bought one off a buy in the US but he "forgot" to ship it.  Ended up getting my money back and buying a Brew instead.

The blue one is especially nice.
