Hi all, you might remember a while back I posted asking if I could fit 26" wheels on a 24" wheeled bike, well thank you for the help but I decided to bite the bullet and just fit it with 24" wheels and sell it on.
Anyways, finally finished the paint job on the frame, still have a few components to paint but thought I'd post a few pics and see what you guys think.
Here's what it originally looked like:
And here's what it looks like now:

It's my first attempt at a refurb and I've made a few mistakes with the paint job but overall it looks pretty good and I've learned a lot. Hopefully my next refurb will go a little smoother!
(The handlebar stem was seized and had to be dissolved out with caustic soda) :x
Anyways, I'll upload more pics when the components are painted and fitted, also wanna make some decals for it.
So what do you guys think?
