Nice to see a different colour combo mate   ;)
Not many people do a yellow and chrome build
I think it works well :daumenhoch:
Nice build indeed  :4_17_5:

As above, nice to see something different  :daumenhoch:

There's no right or wrong when building a bike - build it how you want it  ;)

quite agree,esp with dp frames as they were not sold as compleat bikes.

Looks nice  :daumenhoch:

reminds me of what alot of Firebird builds were like - built with all the parts of a Burner!

The Firebird F&F was a natural progression, the next step up, a cheap English frameset on the bike build ladder

I knew a dude that had a DP just like that bitd, yellow tuffs off burners found there way onto all sorts of bikes.

Looks great, although the lever cover is on the wrong way round, but I guess you know that already  :daumenhoch:
