Re: That looks very tidy, you've got to love the early nineties paint jobs, wish those colour schemes would make a comeback. I can imagine it rode a treat with the 105 groupset.

Re: I had one of these, I found mine on eBay for £100 back in 2016, it turned out to be about 2cm too big for me but I got plenty of use out of it before selling it on. You won't be disappointed with the performance of this bike when it's built up, I think my Optimum was probably one of the...

Re: Yeah I know all about the Helicomatic cassette jobby, I used to have one, mine was a right pain haha. It would have been a great idea if they'd used bigger ball bearings. Same, I'd never seen a six slot/pin before I got this bike. It's a real shame because it's a reliable wheel bearing wise...
