Super sleek race bike looks :slayer:
Maybe a layback seat post would make it look too much like a Laserlite?

Thanks for your comments guys!

Yeah, the seat could definitely go back a bit, and that might reduce the desire for a layback. Good point about the Laserlite, especially as I'd be robbing/using the layback off mine!! ;)

Turned out well needs a Ross seat.

Funny you should say that because I nearly bought this:-



Thought it was quite cool but decided to save some pennies and use the Araike Jaguar instead. :daumenhoch:

Will move the seat back and get some decent pics taken this weekend, weather permitting.

Yeah, that's the one! :daumenhoch:

So I moved the seat a smidgen back on the rails, and the seat post down a bit, then went out and took some more pics this morning. Here's a few of 'em:-







I'll post some more pics with a full parts list in the old school race section! :daumenhoch:
