I gave myself a day off from the Hospital today, and went home. I made sure I allowed an hour to play with this.

I fitted the headset and Tange locknut I got off Mat, the layback and SR stem that Dan powdered for me, and the seat I got off Wini.

Cheers Tommy, I think the shade of the bars will be less noticeable when built, they were NOS, so seems a shame to repaint them.  :daumenhoch:

The NRP Tuffs arrived today off Neil, so I fitted the tyres I got off Justin @ porkchop and added a set of ScottyB's super duper valve caps.

Cheers Tommy.

I took it outside today to see what the colours looked like in natural light. The Tuffs and bars look blue.

I'm hoping to get this ready for the Liverpool ride in Jan.

The pedals arrived from the States this morning, so fitted them along with the copy MX1000 (converted for Potts Mod) genuine Tuff pads, 44t Tuf Neck, powdered by Dan, and also a copy Tech 3 complete with Sharp lever grip (it was buying the lever grips that decided what colour to use)

Got my arse moving with this, still not completely finished, and a few tweaks to do, but 2 years to get it to this stage, my longest ever build.
