Registering for updates.

Naturally getting an exact match of 31 year old powder coat wasn't going to be possible so of all the samples of black, dark grey and white powders I went with these. I decided to go for a little heavier metallic and a little darker than stock and the 'off white' is just a nice glossy white that's not too white. Fingers crossed

I reckon that's gonna end up looking better than the original colours

Now that's interesting. I have a very similar project in mind and I'm looking forward to seeing how you get on with it.

Ritchey made bb shells as well as tube sets. Many builders used them

Ritchey gave companies specifications to make tubing with the Ritchey branding.
Tange the being the main one for the retro era, that I forget who they switched to.

Any updates? Hoping you kept the original colour scheme!

This project is dead, hence me listing the fork and decals in the "For Sale" section. Media blasting revealed rust pinholes in the chainstays. Sold the frame off to a guy who welded frames for Rocky Mountain in the 90's and it will live out the rest of its day's as a wall hanger
